Description
Beginning with a study of evolutionary biology and the necessity (and ultimate value) of deceit in the animal kingdom, Campbell asks the difficult question of whether falsehood might, in fact, be instinctual. Unsettling some of the most firmly held beliefs about truth and ethics, "The Liar's Tale" is a riveting work of intellectual history.
