Hugo Münsterberg was a German-American psychologist and philosopher, known for his contributions to applied psychology. He wrote extensively on various topics, including clinical psychology, forensic psychology, and industrial psychology, helping to establish psychology as a respected scientific discipline. His influential works include "Psychotherapy" (1909) and "On the Witness Stand" (1908), which addressed the psychological aspects of legal testimony. Münsterberg was also a key figure in early film theory, exploring the psychological effects of cinema in his book "The Photoplay: A Psychological Study" (1916).

Our practical life is filled with psychological problems which have to be solved somehow, and if everything is left to commonsense and to unscientific fancies about the mind, confusion must result, and the...
