Book Description
Lies, Lying and Liars: A Psychological Analysis delves into the psychology of lies, exploring the processes of lying and its far-reaching consequences. The author’s unique approach considers the ways in which lying sculpts our realities when used by public figures such as politicians, as well as how lying is woven into our everyday life. This book dissects lies in natural social contexts, from the innocent childhood fibs to the more nefarious fabrications of con artists, cheats, and adulterers. Drawing from a rich tapestry of psychology and sociobiology, as well as research and literature from philosophy and the social sciences, this book discusses the role of lying and liars in day-to-day life. It offers profound insights into the strategies of deceit, the presence or absence of remorse, emotion and rationalisations, pathological liars, the development of lying, its connection to narcissism, the functional utility of lies, and lie detection. Lies, the book argues, are a part of the social structures inherent in everyday social life, and there is a need to explore their psychological significance in a range of natural, everyday contexts. Written in Beattie’s unique and engaging style by using elements of personal narrative and self-reflection, this is a fascinating read for students and scholars of psychology, sociology, and politics, and other disciplines of the behavioural and social sciences, as well as anyone interested in the phenomenon of lying.

Book Description
Everyone kisses the ground Alec Grayson walks on. I mean, literally. Girls kneel on the dirty sidewalk to kiss his lack-luster Hollywood star. But not me. I detest the swagger and million-watt smile that makes every other woman melt. In fact, I’ve made it my call of duty to loathe the guy whenever he walks into my office building. He’s my worst nemesis, and everyone knows it. Including him. But then he puts a stupid proposition on the table. He needs a monogamous relationship with a pretend girlfriend so he can get the best film role of his life—the one that will get him an Oscar. And all we have to do is lie to the entire world. Can we pull it off? Maybe. If we can tolerate each other long enough. But then this crazy thing happens one night… He plants a single fervent kiss on my reluctant lips. The kiss is fake, no doubt. After all, he’s an excellent actor. Problem is… It turns my world upside down and makes me reconsider everything. **This is one of those steamy romance novels that will keep you up all night. It is hot and it’s a page-turner. If you don’t like that… don’t get this book.

Book Description
In recent years there have been a number of books-both anthologies and monographs-that have focused on the Liar Paradox and, more generally, on the semantic paradoxes, either offering proposed treatments to those paradoxes or critically evaluating ones that occupy logical space. At the same time, there are a number of people who do great work in philosophy, who have various semantic, logical, metaphysical and/or epistemological commitments that suggest that they should say something about the Liar Paradox, yet who have said very little, if anything, about that paradox or about the extant projects involving it. The purpose of this volume is to afford those philosophers the opportunity to address what might be described as reflections on the Liar.
