Rezensionen

"This is an exceptional book. Newcomers to Gestalt often become somewhat bewildered by its complexity but Bluckert's book provides a straightforward, thought provoking and practical account, of Gestalt, which is comprehensive whilst retaining the subtlety of the approach. It widens the horizons of Gestalt to include teams, organisations and engagement with broader social and political action. It will be required reading on the programmes I deliver. Congratulations. A real achievement." - Dr Geoff Pelham, coach, psychotherapist and educator

"Gestalt is a powerful and creative approach to human growth and development. In this book Bluckert has brought to life the core principles of Gestalt, their relevance and impact when coaching individuals and teams. An essential read for any coach or consultant wishing to deepen their practice and understanding of Gestalt." - Gaynor Sharp, organisational consultant and executive coach

"Psychologically rich, Bluckert's new book is both captivating and highly informative revealing his in-depth understanding, practice and deep respect for the world of Gestalt. He conveys many of the profound Gestalt principles with clarity and elegance and manages to provide a compelling read whilst also providing a comprehensive overview of this significant field. A must read for coaches and all those in the helping professions who could not fail to be drawn into the power and excitement of working and indeed, living, this way." - Brigid Garvey, co-founder of True North Partnership, leadership development facilitator and executive coach
