His work ?Productive Thinking? (1945), written in New York, is regarded as a milestone in creativity research. Consisting of many examples of creative thought processes - from geometric tasks to socio-psychologically relevant conflict resolutions to the development of Einstein?s theory of relativity - the book leads the reader through a multi-faceted body of thought in the psychology of thinking. Detailed historical commentary by Viktor Sarris. Only a few texts in psychology have remained significant even after a period of three quarters of a century - Max Wertheimer?s Productive Thinking is such an exception. This book, which also presents an exposition of Gestalt psychology, highlights the ?productive? (insightful) versus automatic (unreflected) thought processes for many areas of life. In addition to examples from school teaching, the chapter on the emergence of Albert Einstein's theory of relativity is of lasting interest to today's generation of psychologists, pedagogues, brain researchers, neuroinformatics scientists/researchers and philosophers. Wertheimer had the unique opportunity to analyze Einstein?s thinking in direct conversation. An introductory commentary by Viktor Sarris for this new edition of the first publication of Productive Thinking in 1945 offers a detailed account of the genesis and reception of Wertheimer?s work. 410 0$aClassic Texts in the Sciences,$x2365-9963 606 $aHistory 606 $aPsychology 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 606 $aHistory of Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y28000 606 $aCognitive Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20060 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aPsychology. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 14$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistory of Psychology. 615 24$aCognitive Psychology. 676 $a153.42 700 $aWertheimer$b Max$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$051234 702 $aSarris$b Viktor$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996418265603316 996 $aMax Wertheimer Productive Thinking$92547781 997 $aUNISA
