factual error in entry - incorrect doctoral supervisor

This article claims that my doctoral advisor was Tony Judt. This is not true. I took classes with Judt but my doctoral advisors were Richard Webster, Amos Funkenstein and Gerald Feldman. This may be verified by consulting the Acknowledgments page of my first book, Zionism and Technocracy: The Engineering of Jewish Settlement in Palestine, 1870-1918 (Indiana University Press, 1991).

I have added the accurate information. I have no idea why anyone would revert to an unsourced claim.. Slrubenstein | Talk 09:30, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
