Lies: Why Telling the Truth Is Always Better
4.99 €
Sad but true: there is hardly a single capable person on the whole Earth who has not lied at least once or twice to others or to himself. For many, lying becomes a panacea, for some it is a favorite pastime, and some, such as politicians and businessmen, use it as one of the tools of their profession.
Sam Harris dissects the famous "non-lethal" sin, revealing its negative aspects, and with the help of numerous examples proves to us: a lie, even the smallest, is a weapon of terrible destructive power. Neither authority, nor long-lasting friendships, nor strong relationships can withstand its blows.
You will not notice how, carried away by lying, you will not be able to do without it and will lose the most precious thing - the trust of loved ones.
The author teaches us not to get hooked by lies and convinces us that it is much more profitable to tell the truth openly even in the most difficult situations.
