This giant
of modern psychology wrote that The Gestalt Approach was "an exploration
of a somewhat new approach to the entire subject of human behavior --
both in its actuality and its potentiality." Eyewitness to Therapy contains film transcripts that Perls believed had significant teaching
value.

Fritz Perls
completed the first draft of this manuscript shortly before his death.
The editor has been careful to make minimal changes. Fritz felt his previous
books on theory were outdated, difficult to read, and incomplete. In The Gestalt Approach he has succeeded in writing a readable comprehensive
theory explaining gestalt therapy.

Fritz Perls believed a study of his films was the best way to learn gestalt
therapy. The title, Eye Witness to Therapy, is his. Each
film contains an introduction by Fritz. The transcripts are very readable and often poignant.
