He was engaged in practical aspects of using the principles of gestaltpsichology in the field of perception, training, development of the psyche, and social relationships.

Vygotsky, who helps the reader to enter the circle of the main problems of Gestaltheuria and understand its place among the directions of psychology that developed at that time.
