Kniha je souborem přepisů tří workshopů, které se odehrály ve slavném Esalenském institutu v roce 1968. V nich Perls živě demonstruje, co je gestalt: celek lidského prožívání, do něhož se v rámci terapie snažíme opět zahrnout všechny myšlenky, vjemy a emoce, které jsme od sebe dříve oddělili. První část knihy obsahuje čtyři přednášky, v nichž Perls jasně a jednoduše vysvětluje základní myšlenky, které podle něj tvoří filozofii a metodologii gestalt terapie. Následují záznamy semináře na téma snů. Hlavním Perlsovým záměrem zde není sen analyzovat, ale znovu prožít. Poslední část zaznamenává několik po sobě následujících individuálních sezení s jednou osobou a také skupinové setkání. Zde se Perls snaží zachytit další aspekty gestalt terapie, které z předchozích částí nejsou tak patrné. Kniha je základním svědectvím o tom, jak gestalt terapii praktikoval její zakladatel. Frederick S. Perls (1893–1970) byl americký psychoterapeut německo-židovského původu. Původně byl ovlivněn Freudem, ale později se od analýzy odklonil směrem k důrazu na prožívání a se svou ženou Laurou vytvořil koncept gestalt terapie. Ta je založena na poznávání a vyjadřování vlastních prožitků „tady a teď“ a na živý kontakt s okolím a druhými lidmi. Kvůli svému židovskému původu Perls ve 30. letech 20. století odešel z Německa a zakotvil nejprve v Jižní Africe, později v USA a nakonec v Kanadě. Největšího vlivu dosáhl v rámci svého působení v kalifornském Esalenu.

`In this eminently sensible, practical and thought-provoking book, Jennifer Mackewn takes gestalt light years forward towards a synthesis and integration of psychological styles and away from what she describes as Perlism . I agree with her: this is a book for therapists, not principally for gestaltists... In inviting the reader to pick and choose from the many and varied, always practical, hands-on approach chapters... Jennifer Mackewn hopes we will both enjoy her book and find it of use. This reader, commending the book to you all, has no doubt that both her hopes will be fulfilledâ ² - Self SocietyDescribing contemporary integrative Gestalt counselling and psychotherapy, this book addresses 30 key issues which will help both trainee and practising counsellors examine and improve crucial areas of their work.The field theoretical and relational model which underpins the book suggests that therapy is a complex process which requires therapists to be intuitive and self-aware while engaging in a number of interrelated therapeutic tasks. The importance of meeting clients person-to-person in a meaningful relationship is highlighted. Jennifer Mackewn encourages counsellors to focus on areas that they may feel need special attention, and shows them how to blend their skills into a subtle and versatile art form. The book covers vital aspects of Gestalt counselling and psychotherapy, such as: appreciating the significance of beginnings; understanding the clientâ ²s context; the dialogic relationship; contact and awareness; exploring life themes and support systems; and experimental and creative methods.

A seminal book that placed the study of human behaviour in a new perspective, demolished many schools of psychology and brought about a return to the dynamic view of human personality. It invites the reader to go on a course of self-therapy designed to develop an awareness of the self and a growth of the personality. Employing the wide-ranging techniques of the Gestalt approach to heighten sensory perception and motoric behaviour and to deepen the capacity to enjoy interpersonal relationships, it is a practical insight into one of the most important psychotherapeutic techniques. Starting with the premise that experience begins at the contact boundary it examines the nature of that experience and the various obstacles that can stand in the way of growth. Gestalt therapy is explained in detail, with its basis in the methods of psychotherapy from Freud to the present outlined. First published in 1951, Gestalt Therapy has remained constantly in print ever since and is regarded as one of the most important studies of self-awareness available.

Kniha je základním textem představujícím teorii a praxi gestalt terapie, významného psychoterapeutického směru, který se objevuje v polovině 20. století. Jeho původce, Frederick Perls, ho uvedl jako výsledek svého celoživotního úsilí o rozvinutí nového psychoterapeutického modelu, který by důsledně vycházel z holistických a organizmických principů a představoval tak alternativu k ortodoxní psychoanalytické doktríně nebo mechanistické behaviorální tradici. I když původní myšlenky pocházejí od Fredericka Perlse, kniha je výsledkem tvořivé spolupráce tří autorů (Paula Goodmana, který materiál dílu rozvinul a přepracoval, a Ralpha Hefferline, jenž vše aplikoval v praxi). Tato publikace se zcela právem řadí mezi klasická díla o psychoterapii vůbec. Podává základní výklad pro nový psychoterapeutický přístup, rozhodně ale není lehkým čtením. Nelze ji číst jedním dechem, jak je tomu u mnoha populárních psychologických knížek. Zejména pro čtenáře, který se zatím neorientuje v základní teorii gestalt terapie, může být zpočátku těžkým soustem. Je to však základní práce pro seriózního studenta, který je připraven číst a studovat ji znovu, zažívat ji pomalu a trpělivě. Kniha poprvé vyšla před více než půlstoletím a o jejím vlivu na další generace psychologů a psychoterapeutů svědčí i její pravidelné reedice a překlady do všech světových jazyků.

The funniest, most satirical cartoon she has ever written ⠓ as well as, perhaps, the most prescient OBSERVER Very funny and self-hating in a good way ZADIE SMITHFrom her pygmy goat farm in Vermont, a cartoonist named Alison Bechdel wonders: Can she pull humanity out of its death spiral by writing a scathing memoir about her own greed and privilege?But how can she just sit around writing a book when the world is hanging on a thread?In this hilariously skewering comic novel, Alison is existentially pained by a climate-challenged world and a country on the brink of civil war. Her first graphic memoir about growing up with her taxidermist father has been adapted into a highly successful TV series, Death and Taxidermy. It⠙s a phenomenon that makes Alison, formerly on the cultural margins, the envy of her friend group. As the TV show racks up Emmy after Emmy, Alison⠙s own envy spirals. Surely writing her own wildly popular reality TV series wouldn⠙t be that hard? One that shows people how to free themselves from consumer capitalism and live a more ethical life?!In Spent, the celebrated, bestselling author of the modern classic Fun Home presents a laugh-out-loud and passionately political work of autofiction, and once again proves that ⠜nobody does it better⠝ (New York Times) than the real Alison Bechdel.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERCasual, effortless, chic: these are not words you’d use to describe most desserts. But before Alison made recipes so perfect that they go by one name – The Cookie, The Pasta, The Lemon Cake – she was a restaurant pastry chef who spent most of her time learning to make things the hard way. She studied flavour, technique, and precision, then distilled her knowledge to pare it all down to create dessert recipes that feel special and approachable, impressive and doable. In Sweet Enough, Alison has written the book for people who think they don’t have the time or skill to pull off dessert. Here, the desserts you want to make right away, you can make right away. Alison shows you how to make simple yet sublime sweets with her trademark casualness, like how to make jam in the oven, then turn that jam into a dessert – swirled into ice cream or folded into easy one-bowl cake batter (opening a jar of jam is more than fine, too). She waxes poetic on the virtues of frozen fruit and teaches you the best way to throw your own Sundae Party. There are effortless cakes that take just minutes to get into a pan. And there are new, instant classics with a signature Alison twist, like Salted Lemon Pie, Raspberries and Sour Cream, Toasted Rice Pudding, or a Caramelised Maple Tart. Requiring little more than your own two hands and a few mixing bowls, the recipes are geared towards those without fancy equipment or specialty ingredients. Whether you’re a dedicated baker or, better yet, someone who doesn’t think they are a baker, Sweet Enough lets you finish any dinner, any party, or any car ride to a dinner party with a little something wonderful and sweet.

The third volume of Alison Weir s magisterial history of the queens of medieval EnglandMedieval queens were seen as mere dynastic trophies, yet many of the Plantagenet queens of the High Middle Ages dramatically broke away from the restrictions imposed on their sex, as Alison Weir shows in this gripping group biography of England s fourteenth-century consorts.Using personal letters and wonderfully vivid sources, Alison Weir evokes the lives of five remarkable queens: Marguerite of France, Isabella of France, Philippa of Hainault, Anne of Bohemia and Isabella of Valois.The turbulent, brutal Age of Chivalry witnessed the Black Death, the Peasants Revolt, the Hundred Years War against France and savage baronial wars against the monarchy in which these queens were passionately involved.
