Woldt and Sarah M. Toman have put together a monumental text that fills a gap in the genre of serious Gestalt literature that has remained relatively empty since Perls  Hefferline  and Goodmans Gestalt Therapy was published in 1951. This is not to say that there havent been extraordinary works in this field published since then; however  this is one of the most expansive books of the recent collection. Each of the chapter authors has written impressive selections that  taken one-by-one  are valuable additions for serious students and practitioners.
