Reviews
"The basic theme of Avner Falk's work: his ambivalent relationship with his mother, identified with his 'Motherland,' his resulting difficulties in achieving individuation, the 'narcissistic injuries' he suffered and his reactions of violence and aggression is most convincing. It is a most stimulating and original work." --Dorothy Carrington, "Israeli psychohistorian FaIk catches well the essence of Napoleon's life and career, discerning the thread in his personality. By taking an unconventional psychohistorical approach, FaIk has written a more insightful and textured biography of Napoleon than previous studies, demonstrating that Napoleon had a self-destructive personality . . . . Highly recommended." -- Choice

Synopsis
Although Napoleon Bonaparte has been a favorite subject of biographers for nearly two centuries, to date no full-scale psychobiography of arguably the most compelling, fascinating, and complex leader in world history has ever been published. With Napoleon Against Himself , internationally recognized scholar Avner Falk fills this void. He not only considers Napoleon's intellect but also what use he made of it, how it affected his emotional life, and whether he used intellectualization as one of his unconscious defensive processes. Additionally, he examines Napoleon's ambivalent relationship with his mother, his identification with the "Motherland," and his fits of narcissistic rage, violence, and aggression. Specifically, Falk focuses on his numerous irrational, self-defeating, and self-destructive actions. In weaving in the psychological interpretations that have previously been proposed for Napoleon's actions with his own new insights, Falk has created a most stimulating and original work that sheds much needed light on Napoleon's troubled inner world., A most stimulating and original work that sheds much needed light on Napoleon's troubled inner world, Avner Falk's biography examines Napoleon's family background, infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and death and offers new and novel explanations for his numerous irrational, self-defeating, and self-destructive actions.
