520 1 _a"The ideas of Max Wertheimer (1880-1943), a founder of Gestalt theory are discussed in almost all general books on the history of psychology, and in most introductory textbooks on psychology. This biography of Wertheimer is the first book-length treatment of a scholar whose ideas are recognized as of central importance to fields as varied as social psychology, cognitive neuroscience, problem solving, art, and visual neuroscience." "King and Wertheimer trace the origins of Gestalt thought, demonstrating its continuing importance in fifteen chapters and several supplements to these chapters." "This biography will be of interest to psychologists and readers interested inscience, modern European history, and the Holocaust."--BOOK JACKET.
