About the Book
Since its publication in 1960, this bestselling book by Maxwell Maltz has inspired and improved the lives of more than 30 million people. In this updated edition, which features a foreword, afterword, and commentary by Matt Furey, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, the original text has been enriched to make Maltz's message even more relevant to contemporary readers. Psycho-cybernetics is a term coined by Dr. Maxwell Maltz that means "to direct the mind toward a productive and useful goal in order to reach the best harbor in the world: peace of mind." Maltz was the first researcher and author to explain how self-image (a term he popularized) has complete control over a person's ability to achieve (or not) any goal. He also developed techniques for improving and managing self-image--visualization, mental rehearsal, relaxation--that have influenced and inspired countless motivational teachers, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for over fifty years. The teachings of psycho-cybernetics are timeless because they are based on solid scientific knowledge and provide methods of thought and action that lead to measurable results.About the Author
El Dr. Maxwell Maltz (1889-1975) de doctoró en medicina en la Universidad de Columbia en 1923. Después de un trabajo de posgrado en cirugía plástica en Europa, Maltz fue nombrado director de varios departamentos de cirugía reparadora en hospitales de Nueva York a lo largo de su larga y distinguida carrera. Fue un destacado conferenciante internacional especializado en los aspectos psicológicos de la cirugía plástica. Publicó dos libros sobre el tema, New Faces, New Futures y Dr. Pygmalion. En la década de 1950, Maltz se sintió cada vez más fascinado por el número de pacientes que acudían a él solicitando cirugía, los cuales habían exagerado enormemente las «imágenes mentales» de sus deformidades o defectos físicos, y cuya infelicidad e inseguridades permanecían sin cambios incluso después de que él les diera los nuevos rostros que deseaban. En 1960, después de casi una década de asesorar a cientos de estos pacientes, una extensa investigación y pruebas de su teoría del «condicionamiento del éxito» en atletas, vendedores y otros colectivos, publicó sus hallazgos --ideas radicales por aquel entonces-- en la primera edición de Psicocibernética, que vendió millones de copias y fue traducida a docenas de idiomas.Suggested Age: 22 Years and Up
