The author provides good sources for future references. It is not as practical as it is providing a general philosophical and cultural background for contemporary Gestalt therapy tradition. Still, there is something vital missing in such approaches to Gestalt.

No It is a very intelligent and nicely-written book. No transpersonal glimpses in the book though; the reflections are mostly limited to existential realities. Apr 18, Vladimir rated it it was ok. The 'philosophical' part lacks clarity and is not well organized. The text is too repetitive, some phrases and qutos are repeared three or more times, sometimes twice on the same page.
