Publisher's Synopsis
In the preface to the American edition, the author writes: The volume is not restricted to a critical presentation of those aspects of Gestalt psychology which seem significant to me. Rather, in addition, it offers results of an experimental approach to new problems from the Gestalt viewpoint … primarily … Gestalt laws governing mental work, the phenomena … [of] `connective inhibition' and `mental dazzle' as they appear in thought processes, and the transposition of action forms.
