The literature of paranoia is immense. For those interested in the psychology of paranoia, one of the more recent studies is Alistair Munro, Delusional Disorder: Paranoia and Related Illnesses (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999). An interesting fusion in “political psychology” can be found in Robert S. Robins and Jerrold M. Post, Political Paranoia: The Psychopolitics of Hatred (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1997). A brilliant fictional account of the descent into paranoia is found in Barry Unsworth, Losing Nelson (New York: Norton, 2000).

A psychiatrist cannot, or should not, make a psychiatric diagnosis on the basis of reportage. When someone is labeled a “schizophrenic” in this book, it is because that diagnosis has been made by experts who have examined him. Otherwise, I will indicate that I am speculating or dealing in probabilities.

Sartre, still in the throes of Marxism, wrote: “We find scarcely any anti-Semitism among workers. . . . The majority of the anti-Semites . . . belongs to the middle class, that is, among men who have a level of life equal or superior to that of the Jews.” Jean-Paul Sartre, Anti-Semite and Jew, tran.

Sartre was accepting of the fact that Jews had “physical conformations that one encounters more frequently than among non-Jews.” He clearly makes the point that the stereotype is not universal or exclusive to Jews. Still, it is disquieting to find this ardent champion of the Jews describing one of his friends as being of a marked semitic type: “He had a hooked nose, protruding ears, and thick lips. A Frenchman would have recognized him as a Jew without hesitation.” Jean-Paul Sartre, Anti-Semite and Jew, tran. George J. Becker (New York: Schocken Books, 1965), p. 61.
