Duped by Timothy R Levine
Across a host of issues such as the advent of fake news, climate-science denial, and Bernie Madoff's appeal to investors, people can be astonishingly gullible. This book provides a scrupulous account that overturns many commonplace notions about how we can best detect lies and falsehoods.
Tim Levine has given us an elegant and persuasive explanation of one of the oldest puzzles in psychologyWhy are human beings so easily deceived? Duped has completely changed my understanding of liars and their lies." - Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers and host of the podcast Revisionist History
Timothy R. Levine is distinguished professor and chair of the department of communication studies at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. He has been studying deception for more than twenty-five years and has published his research in more than 140 articles in academic journals.
