Book The Truth About Lies

    Book Details:
  • Author : Aja Raden
  • Publisher : St. Martin's Press
  • Release : 2021-05-11
  • ISBN : 1250272033
  • Pages : 206 pages

Download or read book The Truth About Lies written by Aja Raden and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do you believe what you believe? You’ve been lied to. Probably a lot. We’re always stunned when we realize we’ve been deceived. We can’t believe we were fooled: What was I thinking? How could I have believed that? We always wonder why we believed the lie. But have you ever wondered why you believe the truth? People tell you the truth all the time, and you believe them; and if, at some later point, you’re confronted with evidence that the story you believed was indeed true, you never wonder why you believed it in the first place. In this incisive and insightful taxonomy of lies and liars, New York Times bestselling author Aja Raden makes the surprising claim that maybe you should. Buttressed by history, psychology, and science, The Truth About Lies is both an eye-opening primer on con-artistry—from pyramid schemes to shell games, forgery to hoaxes—and also a telescopic view of society through the mechanics of belief: why we lie, why we believe, and how, if at all, the acts differ. Through wild tales of cons and marks, Raden examines not only how lies actually work, but also why they work, from the evolutionary function of deception to what it reveals about our own. In her previous book, Stoned, Raden asked, “What makes a thing valuable?” In The Truth About Lies, she asks “What makes a thing real?” With cutting wit and a deft touch, Raden untangles the relationship of truth to lie, belief to faith, and deception to propaganda. The Truth About Lies will change everything you thought you knew about what you know, and whether you ever really know it.

Book The Evolution of Animal Communication

Download or read book The Evolution of Animal Communication written by William A. Searcy and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gull chicks beg for food from their parents. Peacocks spread their tails to attract potential mates. Meerkats alert family members of the approach of predators. But are these--and other animals--sometimes dishonest? That's what William Searcy and Stephen Nowicki ask in The Evolution of Animal Communication. They take on the fascinating yet perplexing question of the dependability of animal signaling systems. The book probes such phenomena as the begging of nesting birds, alarm calls in squirrels and primates, carotenoid coloration in fish and birds, the calls of frogs and toads, and weapon displays in crustaceans. Do these signals convey accurate information about the signaler, its future behavior, or its environment? Or do they mislead receivers in a way that benefits the signaler? For example, is the begging chick really hungry as its cries indicate or is it lobbying to get more food than its brothers and sisters? Searcy and Nowicki take on these and other questions by developing clear definitions of key issues, by reviewing the most relevant empirical data and game theory models available, and by asking how well theory matches data. They find that animal communication is largely reliable--but that this basic reliability also allows the clever deceiver to flourish. Well researched and clearly written, their book provides new insight into animal communication, behavior, and evolution.

Book Evolution   The Greatest Deception in Modern History

Download or read book Evolution The Greatest Deception in Modern History written by Roger Graham Gallop and published by . This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an easy-to-read, comprehensive and compelling review of scientific evidence for Divine Creation-loaded with color photos and illustrations. This book is described as a "tour de force which strongly refutes the notion that 'science supports' the evolution/long age view." It clearly shows that evolutionary doctrine is not based on known scientific laws or the preponderance of scientific evidence but rather, it is built on false assumptions and poor science. Scientific creation, as described in the Book of Genesis, is perfectly consistent with all known scientific laws and evidence-the evidence is overwhelming and supports the reality of a worldwide flood and a young earth. Dr. Roger Gallop is a geologist and marine scientist with over 35 years as a geotechnical and biological consultant. He has degrees in geology, oceanography, and science education. In addition, he was an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps and is a Vietnam veteran. He has been happily married for 40 years with one son and grandson.

Book An Alternative Decision

Download or read book An Alternative Decision written by I. R. Jangharia and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a book which gives an insight into some fundamental questions of our existence, which you and I have considered within ourselves at one time or another in our lives. Some of us have been too afraid to tackle these type of questions, and some of us have not attempted to research the answers to the fundamental questions of our existence due to not being able to have the time to research them deeply in order to uncover the truth. Sadly, with regret, many of us are simply too ignorant to even consider or research certain truths because we think we know best. It is a book which highlights to the point, in a very concise manner. It is a book which allows you to think. It encourages you to go even deeper into establishing a certain truth for your own satisfaction in your own heart and mind. It is a book simplified even for the intellectuals in order to take up as a challenge for yourself. You certainly owe it to yourself. It is left for you to agree or disagree and come to your own conclusions after considering some or all of the points raised. Or you may still sit on the fence. It opens up another window in your life highlighting the very fundamental issues of the existence of life, and leaves it upon you to come to a decision within yourself. An Alternative Decision, to the one that you might already hold.

Book Evolution and Conversion

    Book Details:
  • Author : René Girard
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2017-02-23
  • ISBN : 1350018244
  • Pages : 215 pages

Download or read book Evolution and Conversion written by René Girard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution and Conversion explores the main tenets of René Girard's thought in a series of dialogues. Here, Girard reflects on the evolution of his thought and offers striking new insights on topics such as violence, religion, desire and literature. His long argument is a historical one in which the origin of culture and religion is reunited in the contemporary world by means of a reinterpretation of Christianity and an understanding of the intrinsically violent nature of human beings. He also offers provocative re-readings of Biblical and literary texts and responds to statements by Daniel Dennett and Richard Dawkins. Including an introduction by the authors, this is a revealing text by one of the most original thinkers of our time.

Book A Devil s Chaplain

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard Dawkins
  • Publisher : HMH
  • Release : 2004-10-27
  • ISBN : 0547416520
  • Pages : 277 pages

Download or read book A Devil s Chaplain written by Richard Dawkins and published by HMH. This book was released on 2004-10-27 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays on morality, mortality, and much more from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Selfish Gene and The God Delusion. This early collection of essays from renowned evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is an enthusiastic declaration, a testament to the power of rigorous scientific examination to reveal the wonders of the world. In these essays, Dawkins revisits the meme, the unit of cultural information that he named and wrote about in his groundbreaking work, The Selfish Gene. Here also are moving tributes to friends and colleagues, including a eulogy for novelist Douglas Adams, author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy; correspondence with fellow biologist Stephen Jay Gould; commentary on the events of 9/11; and visits with the famed paleoanthropologists Richard and Meave Leakey at their African wildlife preserve. Ending with a vivid note to Dawkins’s ten-year-old daughter, reminding her to remain curious, ask questions, and live the examined life, A Devil’s Chaplain is a fascinating read by “a man of firm opinions, which he expresses with clarity and punch” (Scientific American).

Book Evolution of Desire

Download or read book Evolution of Desire written by Cynthia L Haven and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2018-04-01 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: René Girard (1923–2015) was one of the leading thinkers of our era—a provocative sage who bypassed prevailing orthodoxies to offer a bold, sweeping vision of human nature, human history, and human destiny. His oeuvre, offering a “mimetic theory” of cultural origins and human behavior, inspired such writers as Milan Kundera and J. M. Coetzee, and earned him a place among the forty “immortals” of the Académie Française. Too often, however, his work is considered only within various academic specializations. This first-ever biographical study takes a wider view. Cynthia L. Haven traces the evolution of Girard’s thought in parallel with his life and times. She recounts his formative years in France and his arrival in a country torn by racial division, and reveals his insights into the collective delusions of our technological world and the changing nature of warfare. Drawing on interviews with Girard and his colleagues, Evolution of Desire: A Life of René Girard provides an essential introduction to one of the twentieth century’s most controversial and original minds.
