The behaviour of individuals within organizations was the single most important area of study for the Tavistock Institute. The titles reproduced here help chart the emergence of the modern discipline of organizational behaviour.

This set reprints critical writings on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders.

This set reprints works by the much-acclaimed aesthete, critic, painter and poet, Adrian Stokes. Through the application of psycho-analytic concepts, his writings provide insights into our own appreciation of creativity and culture.

Reprinted here is a selection of works reflecting on social, organizational and policy dynamics through action research, organizational analysis and formative evaluation.

The titles included here represent a broad range of both theoretical and empirical approaches to the subject of industrial, employee and workplace relations, and include case studies of industries and of individual workplaces.

The Gestalt approach is based on the philosophy that the human being is born with the healthy ability to regulate needs and wants in relationship with the environment in which she/he lives. Heightening of personal awareness and exploration of needs is enabled by the therapist who actively engages in supporting and assisting the therapeutic journey of the client. Gestalt Therapy: Advances in Theory and Practice is a collaboration of some of the best thinkers in the Gestalt therapy approach. It offers a summary of recent advances in theory and practice, and novel ideas for future development. Each chapter focuses on a different element of the Gestalt approach and, with contributors from around the world, each offers a different perspective of its ongoing evolution in relation to politics, religion and philosophy. Incorporating ideas about community, field theory, family and couple therapy, politics and spirituality, this book will be of interest not only to Gestalt therapists but also to non-Gestalt practitioners, counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists and other mental health professionals. Counselling, behavioural science and psychotherapy students will also find this a valuable contribution to their learning.

The writings reprinted here explore the notion that illness is a complicated integration of the individual, the community and environmental considerations, and that any treatment should be administered accordingly.
