The book serves as a supplement to foundational texts in Gestalt theory, offering recent contributions from the original pioneers of the movement, as well as from their collaborators and students. In his presidential address at the 1959 American Psychological Association convention, Khler discussed the contrasts between Gestalt psychology and other prevailing psychological approaches, while expressing optimism for fruitful collaboration between these diverse schools of thought. This volume thus provides a modern extension of the Gestalt tradition, exploring its applications not only in cognitive psychology, but also in social psychology, motivation, and art.</p><p>The selected essays, mostly published since 1950, illustrate how Gestalt psychology has continued to shape research and practice in these fields. While the work of some key figures like Kurt Lewin and Fritz Heider is notably absent due to their previous inclusion in other collections, the contributions presented here provide a comprehensive view of Gestalt psychologys impact on American psychology, particularly through the lens of the New School for Social Research. This institution, founded by Wertheimer in 1933, has served as a hub for Gestalt research in the United States, making this volume a critical resource for understanding both the ongoing influence and the contemporary developments of Gestalt ideas in psychology. Through these essays, readers gain insights into how Gestalt principles have evolved and integrated with new areas of psychological inquiry, offering a nuanced perspective on the disciplines past and future directions.</p><p>This title is part of UC Presss Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Presss mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.
