ABSTRACT:
Max Wertheimer made a lasting contribution to the field of psychology and the social sciences in general with his concept of the gestalt. Gestalt psychology has been declared dead many times, but its decline as a discipline is actually the result of an acceptance of the gestalt concept as an unquestionable truth, rather than a theory, in the social sciences in general. Wertheimer's influence on cognitive psychology, the psychology of art and music, personality and psychotherapy and education is discussed.
