It is proved that a general Fano hypersurface of index 1 (in the projective
space) with isolated singularities of general position is birationally rigid.
Therefore it cannot be fibered into uniruled varieties of a smaller dimension
by a rational map. The group of birational self-maps is either trivial or
cyclic of order two.
