Psycho-Cybernetics and Self-Fulfillment

Descriere: Maxwell Maltz was an American cosmetic surgeon and author of Psycho-Cybernetics, which was a system of ideas that he claimed could improve one's self-image.

What could never be reduced to machine analogies were the fires of imagination, ambition and will.
