About Maxwell Maltz
Maxwell Maltz (1899–1975) was an American cosmetic surgeon and author who became fascinated by the psychological dimensions of self-image after observing that some patients felt no better about themselves even after successful surgery. His discoveries led him to develop a groundbreaking framework linking self-concept to personal achievement and behavior. He became one of the most influential figures in the self-help and psychology movements of the 20th century.
