Maxwell Maltz (March 10, 1899 – April 7, 1975) was an
American cosmetic surgeon and author of Psycho-Cybernetics (1960), which was a
system of ideas that he claimed could improve one's self-image. In turn, the
person would lead a more successful and fulfilling life. He wrote several
books, among which Psycho-Cybernetics was a long-time bestseller — influencing
many subsequent self-help teachers. His orientation towards a system of ideas
that would provide self help is considered the forerunner of the now popular
self help books.
