About Wertheimer
Max Wertheimer was a prominent Austrian psychologist and one of the founding figures of Gestalt psychology, a school of thought that emphasizes the holistic processing of visual and perceptual experiences. Born on April 15, 1880, in Prague, Wertheimer's work focused on the principles of perceptual organization, arguing that the mind integrates sensory experiences into meaningful wholes rather than processing them as isolated parts. His influential ideas have significantly shaped the fields of psychology, perception, and cognitive science.
