Description
From the Sunday Times and international bestselling author of Surrounded by Idiots.
Studies suggest two people who have never met before will tell three lies within the first five minutes. Astounding. But why?
Why do we choose to lie even when we know it's wrong? To not hurt people we love? To present ourselves in a better light? To win short-term points and praise? Or, are there simply far more obscure reasons behind why we lie?
In Surrounded by Liars, international bestselling author and behavioural expert Thomas Erikson will help you recognise the different types of lies we tell and will reveal the psychological reasons behind our lies. From harmless white lies and polishing the truth, to withholding certain information and outright storytelling, Thomas Erikson asks how much you can lie before it becomes a problem and whether it is possible to lie so much that you end up believing your own version of the truth.
With the help of the behavioural model made famous in Surrounded by Idiots, discover why we lie, how it affects our relationships and how to detect the liars in your life.
