This encyclopedia examines the phenomenon of deception from a variety of perspectives and in a multitude of contexts. It offers readers an accessibly written and engaging resource that sheds light on when, why, and how we lie. Ironically, it seems to be a universal truth that everyone lies. From innocent "white lies" to elaborate deceptions, humans appear to be hard-wired for dishonesty. But what psychological or evolutionary purpose does lying serve? What motivates us to lie, and what effects do such lies have on those around us and on our own physiology and mental health? What are the differences between types of lies, and how do various forms of dishonesty manifest themselves in such areas as politics, advertising, and social media? And, perhaps most importantly, how can we spot liars in our everyday lives and encourage those around us—and even ourselves—to be more honest? Lies: The Science behind Deception provides a broad and multifaceted introduction to this fascinating topic. More than 175 entries address the many forms of lying, the purpose and development of such behaviors, and their consequences. It also includes practical sidebars that help readers to deal with lying and liars in their own lives.

For years, Bella DePaulo (Ph.D., Harvard) asked ordinary people to tell her research team about the most serious lies they had ever told, and about the most serious lies that were ever told to them. One after another, they opened up, describing lies about love and sex, cheating and shoplifting, illness and abuse, kinship and adoption, achievements and resources. They told about lies that resulted in the loss of relationships, reputations, and large sums of money. They even described lies that proved deadly. Some admitted to living a lie. Although there was much pain in their accounts, there were also evidence of some remarkable resilience. There are lessons from these hundreds of stories of major deceptions. Dr. DePaulo shares tips for avoiding the temptation to tell serious lies, and explains why some of the most unlikely people can be vulnerable to getting duped.

The world's most infamous hacker offers an insider's view of the low-tech threats to high-tech security Kevin Mitnick's exploits as a cyber-desperado and fugitive form one of the most exhaustive FBI manhunts in history and have spawned dozens of articles, books, films, and documentaries. Since his release from federal prison, in 1998, Mitnick has turned his life around and established himself as one of the most sought-after computer security experts worldwide. Now, in The Art of Deception, the world's most notorious hacker gives new meaning to the old adage, "It takes a thief to catch a thief." Focusing on the human factors involved with information security, Mitnick explains why all the firewalls and encryption protocols in the world will never be enough to stop a savvy grifter intent on rifling a corporate database or an irate employee determined to crash a system. With the help of many fascinating true stories of successful attacks on business and government, he illustrates just how susceptible even the most locked-down information systems are to a slick con artist impersonating an IRS agent. Narrating from the points of view of both the attacker and the victims, he explains why each attack was so successful and how it could have been prevented in an engaging and highly readable style reminiscent of a true-crime novel. And, perhaps most importantly, Mitnick offers advice for preventing these types of social engineering hacks through security protocols, training programs, and manuals that address the human element of security.

This book is written to fulfill a two-fold purpose: First, to expose the spirit of deception and its companions-denial, betrayal and seduction and revealing how they creep into the lives of a large majority of single women, surrounded by secrecy, perversion and greed and cleverly hidden behind lust and seduction. Secondly, to sound the clarion call, especially to those within the faith that there is a demonically inspired and crafty spirit lurking in the shadows waiting and plotting to attack any woman open to its ploys, whose goal is to destroy their God ordained purpose and curtail their destiny. I believe that as you read this book, understanding that deception works using lust to perform what appears to be true love, but beyond the veil of denial, there is a counterfeit monster of deception. My prayers are that as you read and pray you won't fall to its prey.

"I speak the truth, not so much as I would, but as much as I dare...."-- Montaigne "All cruel people describe themselves as paragons of frankness.'" -- Tennessee Williams Truth and deception--like good and evil--have long been viewed as diametrically opposed and unreconcilable. Yet, few people can honestly claim they never lie. In fact, deception is practiced habitually in day-to-day life--from the polite compliment that doesn't accurately relay one's true feelings, to self-deception about one's own motivations. What fuels the need for people to intricately construct lies and illusions about their own lives? If deceptions are unconscious, does it mean that we are not responsible for their consequences? Why does self-deception or the need for illusion make us feel uncomfortable? Taking into account the sheer ubiquity and ordinariness of deception, this interdisciplinary work moves away from the cut-and-dried notion of duplicity as evil and illuminates the ways in which deception can also be understood as a adaptive response to the demands of living with others. The book articulates the boundaries between unethical and adaptive deception demonstrating how some lies serve socially approved goals, while others provoke distrust and condemnation. Throughout, the volume focuses on the range of emotions--from feelings of shame, fear, or envy, to those of concern and compassion--that motivate our desire to deceive ourselves and others. Providing an interdisciplinary exploration of the widespread phenomenon of lying and deception, this volume promotes a more fully integrated understanding of how people function in their everyday lives. Case illustrations, humor and wit, concrete examples, and even a mock television sitcom script bring the ideas to life for clinical practitioners, behavioral scientists, and philosophers, and for students in these realms.

Cases of stigmata, weeping and bleeding icons, the mystifying Shroud of Turin and the Marian Apparitions; all of which are just a fraction of thousands of reported religious miracles. The scientifi c seeks for rational explanations while the faithful accepts them without doubt and hesitation. Penning one fi ne piece of work after the other under a pseudonym, Youth the Writer continues to englighten the modern man with his groundbreaking philosophical series of books. This time around, he sheds light to the hidden affair behind religiious miracles in Inventions and Deception, the seventh in the series. Like all the other six installments, Inventions and Deception follows the conversation, taking place via the authors dreams, between the Professor and Ace. These two beings live in two different times and places but regularly meet to discuss everything there is know about life and its inner workings through the Accelerating Life, an intensive education course that will make each student wiser; allowing them to learn from eighty-eight life experiences in very short time. Through a series of penetrating questions and incisive responses between instructor and student, Inventions and Deception posits that inventions, in the beginning, has become an excellent marketing tool for ancient temples. This early inventors needed support to continue experimenting, and some of them asked the temples masters for such support in exchange it will be displayed in the temples where people can come and see it. The temple masters quickly found out that the people thought of such invention as Gods work, and they were telling other people about it to visit. The temple masters started to invest more in the inventors for exclusive right of the inventions as well as confi dentiality of the project. Soon, greed led the temple masters to kill some of the inventors to make sure that no other temple will have what they have. It was greed and ugliness that made some of the inventors run away and think of the truth of the temple.Some of those inventors become the fi rst unbelievers, and some of them even started a hidden war against the temples. Inventions, later on, become a tool to uncover deception. Youth the Writer has certainly concocted an intelligent read in Inventions and Deception. Apart from discussing how men were deceived to believing the supposedly miracles by the divine and otherworldly, Youth the Writer also tackles polemical issues such as revolutions, political parties, marriage, and good versus evil. The reader is invited and encouraged to think more than the usual and question what has been thought to be true since the world began.
