Telling Lies

PAUL EKMAN

"This admirable book offers both a wealth of detailed, practical information about

lying and lie detection and a penetrating analysis of the ethical implications of

these behaviors. It is strongly recommended to physicians, lawyers, diplomats and

all those who must concern themselves with detection of deceit."

—Jerome D. Frank

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

In this new expanded edition of the author's pathfinding inquiry into the world of

liars and lie catching, Paul Ekman, a world-renowned expert in emotions research

and nonverbal communication, brings, in two new chapters, his much-publicized

findings on how to detect lies to the real world.

In new Chapter 9, "Lie Catching in the 1990s," the author reveals that most of

those to whom we have attributed an ability to detect lies—judges, trial lawyers,

police officers, polygraphers, drug enforcement agents, and others—perform no

better on lie-detecting tests than ordinary citizens, that is, no better than chance.

In addition, he cites the case of Lt. Col. Oliver North and Vice Admiral John

Poindexter during the Iran/contra scandal congressional hearings, to demonstrate

his judicious use of behavioral clues to detect lies.

In Chapter 10, "Lies in Public Life," he incorporates many more real-world

case studies—from lying at the presidential level (Richard Nixon and Watergate,

and Lyndon Johnson and the Vietnam War) to self-deception in the space shuttle

Challenger disaster and the 1991 Senate judiciary hearings on alleged sexual

harassment of Anita Hill by Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas—to delin-

eate further his lie-detecting methods as well as to comment on the place of lies in

public life.

Paul Ekman is professor of psychology at the University of California, San

Francisco.
