People lie. Lies pervade all aspects of our lives - from advertising and politics to medicine and education. Is society to blame for this? Or is our brain naturally tuned to distort information? Where is the line between self-deception and optimism? And in what situations is untruth more valuable than the truth?

Science journalists Shankar Vedantham and Bill Mesler show how deception has shaped humanity and reveal the role that lies play in the modern world. Based on scientific research, crime reports and everyday stories, they explain how to benefit from delusions and stop thinking other people are crazy because of their strange views. And why the truth is not always what it seems.
