In 1954 Adlai Stevenson, widely regarded as an honest (if not always successful) politician, urged his supporters to "cling everlastingly to the truth." Seven years later he lied to the United Nations about the Bay of Pigs. We have come to expect lies from politicians, F. G. Bailey says, but we are less willing to admit deceit and self-deception as a feature of everyone's life, a necessary part of our social and political systems. In this engaging book, Bailey looks at the deeds and words of politicians in the United States, in India, and elsewhere; and at the behavior of ordinary people, mostly in village India. He demonstrates that there is a vast confusion about "truth," that in politics claims to have a monopoly on truth can rarely be sustained, and that people often find themselves treating what they believe to be false as if it were true, because it pays to do so. Through a vivid survey of exemplary occasions of deceit—from the collusive lying of participants in marriage rituals to the institutionalized fraud designed to subdue the weak—Bailey illuminates our rich rhetoric for practical fudging, as we slide between deception, error, and fantasy. His thought-provoking conclusion brilliantly explores the possibility of testing truth in a world of contested values.

Adrian Healey is een geboren leugenaar. Hij liegt continu. En wat nog erger is: hij is een creatieve, ronduit briljante leugenaar. Adrian is trots en onvervaard, en vol minachting voor de gevestigde orde. Op Cambridge, waar hij zich een weg naar zijn examen plagieert, maakt hij kennis met senior tutor Donald Trefusis, in wie hij op alle fronten zijn meerdere moet erkennen. Een heterdaadje op een openbaar herentoilet betekent voor Trefusis een gedwongen maar welkom sabbatical year. Adrian vergezelt hem op een reis naar Salzburg, onderweg vertelt hij over zijn leven tussen de schandknapen rond Piccadilly Circus. Wanneer Adrian zichzelf in een gevaarlijk parket liegt, blijkt hij volkomen onvoorbereid op de waarheid.

Could it be that people who never lie are devoid of creativity? If that’s true, then all creative art must be founded in lies. ‘The Decay of Lying’ is a beguiling essay on the nature of art, in all its forms. Set in the library of a country house in Nottinghamshire, and written as a dialogue between Cyril and Vivian, ‘The Decay of Lying’ sets out to prove just how creative we can all be, as long as we defy societal conventions. Referencing everyone from the Ancient Greeks to Shakespeare, this is Wilde at his most thoughtful and mischievous. For anyone interested in art or witty debate. Oscar Wilde (1854 – 1900) was an Irish novelist, poet, playwright, and wit. He was an advocate of the Aesthetic movement, which extolled the virtues of art for the sake of art. During his career, Wilde wrote nine plays, including ‘The Importance of Being Earnest,’ ‘Lady Windermere’s Fan,’ and ‘A Woman of No Importance,’ many of which are still performed today. His only novel, ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ was adapted for the silver screen, in the film, ‘Dorian Gray,’ starring Ben Barnes and Colin Firth. In addition, Wilde wrote forty-three poems, and seven essays. His life was the subject of a film, starring Stephen Fry.

In the era of health democracy, where a patient’s right to be informed is not only widely advocated but also guaranteed by law, what is the real situation regarding patient information? Do patients receive the information that they request with regard to their diagnosis, prognosis or treatments? And what information do patients themselves give to their doctors? Drawing on observational research in hospitals and covering the exchanges between doctors and patients on the subject of cancer treatment and that of other pathologies, this book reveals that the practice of telling lies is widespread amongst parties on both sides of the medical relationship. With attention to the manner in which information of various types is withheld and the truth concealed on either side of the doctor-patient relationship, the author explores the boundaries between what is said and what is left unsaid, and between those who are given information and those who are lied to. Considering the misunderstandings that occur in the course of medical exchanges and the differences between the lies told by doctors and patients, An Anthropology of Lying: Information in the Doctor-Patient Relationship analyses the role of mendacity in the exercise of, and resistance to power. A fascinating study of the mechanisms at work and social conditions surrounding the accomplishment of lying in medical settings, this book casts fresh light on a subject that has so far been overlooked. As such, it will appeal not only to sociologists and anthropologists of health and medicine, but also to medical professionals.
