Rezensionen

"The task of a good textbook is to provide the student with the most important information to support them to find access to their field of interest. Gro Skottun and Åshild Krüger´s book does more than just that. In a pleasantly readable and comprehensive way they introduce the Gestalt therapy trainee to the fundamental concepts of this approach. And - what is even more valuable - they do a wonderful job in presenting the various topics in an understandable manner without simplifying them, but by stimulating the interest of their readers so that they want to learn more about this lively and efficient form of psychotherapy. On each page it becomes obvious that this book was written by two experienced trainers, who love what they teach and

who know how to captivate their students."

Frank Staemmler, Psychologist and Gestalt therapist, Würzburg

"In this important text, Gro Skottun and Åshild Krüger explore Gestalt's revolutionary core concepts and historical underpinnings as well as its practical applications. Gracefully interweaving case vignettes within each chapter, readers discover the how of Gestalt therapy as they assimilate information not only through thinking, but also through feeling. The book will have a wide and receptive audience: Gestalt training institutes, graduate classes for mental health, masters and doctoral students, and practitioners from a variety of modalities. I highly recommend it."

Ruella Frank, Founder and Director of the Center for Somatic Studies, New York

"I have great respect for this book, both for the huge amount of serious work that the authors have put in on it and for the didactic style that allows even non-specialists to understand what gestalt therapy is. This work is a testament to the true dialogical attitude that the Norwegian institute has always had, through their exchange with many international teachers (including myself). And I particularly appreciate that it begins with a description of gestalt theory as a main root of gestalt therapy, since this is for the most part neglected. I consider this book a very good tool for all gestalt therapy students."
