Tóm tắt

After defining “perlsisms” and a more-encompassing “Peris-ism,” the author differentiates Perlsian Gestalt therapy from Gestalt therapy which is not necessarily Perlsian. As seen through the eyes of a Martian, not influenced by the powerful personal appeal of Fritz Perls, at least eighteen differences can be seen.
