It would seem that what could you have in common with Tony Soprano, Edward Snowden or the author of this book? What could unite you, a fictional character from a popular TV series, a world-famous troublemaker and an associate professor at Columbia University? Secrets! It would not be an exaggeration to say that, in addition to you, approximately eight billion people inhabiting our planet, for a variety of reasons, hide this or that information from others. Some secrets pose a threat to state and public security, while others are not worth a damn. However, Michael Slepian is convinced that all of them are an essential part of our lives and personalities, and how we deal with them - whether we keep them or blab, are burdened by them or strive to possess them - shapes both our inner world and the way we interact with the outside world.
