He has been an independent scholar in applied psychoanalysis since 1983. His Psychoanalytic History of the Jews is being published this year (1996).
Falk's case is the more plausible (if not definitely proved)
because of Falk's immense scholarly massing of numerous source
materials, and telling anecdotal bits.
*Paso Newsletter*
Sometimes a case study scarcely illumines its own subject;
occasionally a case study illumines the human condition. The book
under consideration is in the latter category. Avner Falk, a
prolific Israeli clinical psychologist, is among the most
imaginative and scholarly of contemporary writers who utilize
psychoanalytic insights to interpret history and politics....
Beyond the life of Herzl, Jewish history, and 20th-century history,
Falk's work is a major contribution to the study of the psychology
of nationalism with its many and always impermanent fateful
mother-and father-lands.
