After postgraduate work in plastic surgery in Europe, Maltz was appointed to head several departments of reparative surgery in New York hospitals over his long and distinguished career. He was a prominent international lecturer and on the psychological aspects of plastic surgery. He published two books on the subject, \n\u003ci\u003e New Faces, New Futures\u003c\/i\u003e and \n\u003ci\u003eDr. Pygmalion\u003c\/i\u003e. \n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In the 1950s, Maltz became increasingly fascinated by the number of patients who came to him requesting surgery, who had greatly exaggerated \"mental pictures\" of their physical deformities, and whose unhappiness and insecurities remained unchanged even after he gave them the new faces they desired. In 1960, after nearly a decade of counseling hundreds of such patients, extensive research, and testing his evolving theory of \"success conditioning\" on athletes, salespeople, and others, he published his findings--then radical ideas--in the first edition of \n\u003ci\u003e Psycho-Cybernetics\u003c\/i\u003e, which went on to sell millions of copies and to be translated in dozens of languages. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMatt Furey\u003c\/b\u003e, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, a national and world title-holder in wrestling and martial arts, a bestselling fitness author as well as successful internet entrepreneur, has committed himself to preserving and extending the legacy of Maltz's work.

Maxwell Maltz was a successful plastic surgeon in the States, and he was puzzled by the attitudes of some of his patients whose plastic surgery was successful, but they still felt ugly inside. This book explores the psychology of self-image, and its profound effects on all our lives. But Maxwell Maltz goes further, and sets out an action plan to change your self-image from a disempowering one to an empowering one. Ever wondered how some people seem effortlessly successful, wealthy, fit and healthy, while others struggle and seem to get nowhere? The answers lie in the concepts set out in this book: the self-image, the subconscious mind, the power of visualization, relaxed concentration, goal-setting.\"-- \n\u003cb\u003eFitness4London\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher Marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSince its first publication in 1960, Maxwell Maltz's landmark bestseller has inspired and enhanced the lives of more than 30 million readers! \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this updated edition, with a new introduction and editorial commentary by Matt Furey, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, the original text has been annotated and amplified to make Maltz's message even more relevant for the contemporary reader.\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e- Cybernetics (loosely translated from the Greek): \"a helmsman who steers his ship to port.\" \n\u003cbr\u003e- Psycho-Cybernetics is a term coined by Dr. Maxwell Maltz, which means, \"steering your mind to a productive, useful goal so you can reach the greatest port in the world, peace of mind.\" \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMaltz was the first researcher and author to explain how the self-image (a term he popularized) has complete control over an individual's ability to achieve (or fail to achieve) any goal.
