Beschreibung
Defining lies as statements that are intended to deceive, this book considers the contexts in which people tell lies and explores the consequences. Professor Barnes argues that although there are, in all societies, good pragmatic reasons for not lying all the time, there are strong reasons for lying some of the time.
