DESCRIPTION:
"Intersting" according to Francisco Jose Peredo Noguez. This book has an interesting perspective on lies. As humans, on many occasions, full access to all the information in a situation/relationship can produce unnecessary stress. This books reminds us that truth may make us free, but ignorance is, perhaps more than it should be, bliss.. Misleading Little Commandlet The book sucks. A book titled "The Art of Lying", with calligraphy scribbled across it, instantly brings thoughts of Sun Tzu The Art of War. This book has none of the quality and splendor of the war gods ancient text. It gives short stories on lying to ones spouse and how it is lying. Instead of reading this book, go watch Jerry Springer and you will get the same feel.. Lying presented as a craft How can we verify that the authors are telling the truth about the subject of their book?
They bring to light the benefits of lying that have long been hidden behind the universal belief that lying is wrong. Lying can be good for you!?! From George Washington and the cherry tree to Watergate and Whitewater, everything we have ever learned tells us that lies are wrong. The authors demonstrate how lying can be good for human relationships and show you how to tell a lie wisely.. But if lies are bad, why do so many of us tell lies each and every day? Could it be that human relationships actually depend on skillfully inserted lies? In this intriguing study of the role of lies in human behavior, a noted Japanese psychiatrist and a successful businessman argue that despite everything we've been taught in America, lies make the world go round
