Description

Many children learn from a young age to tell the truth.

They also learn that some lies are necessary in order to survive in a world that paradoxically values truth-telling, but practises deception.

This book examines this paradox by considering how deception is often a necessary means of survival for individuals, families, governments, and animals.
