The Truth about Trust by David Desteno

This one's worth reading. Trust me. --Daniel Gilbert, PhD, bestselling author of Stumbling on Happiness

Issues of trust come attached to almost every human interaction, yet few people realize how powerfully their ability to determine trustworthiness predicts future success. David DeSteno's cutting-edge research on reading trust cues with humanoid robots has already excited widespread media interest. In The Truth About Trust, the renowned psychologist shares his findings and debunks numerous popular beliefs, including Paul Zak's theory that oxytocin is the moral molecule. From education and business to romance and dieting, DeSteno's fascinating, paradigm-shifting book offers new insights and practical takeaways that will forever change how readers understand, communicate, and make decisions in every area of life.

David DeSteno runs the Social Emotions Group at Northeastern University, where he is a professor of psychology. He is the co-author of Out of Character with Piercarlo Valdesolo, a fellow of the Society for Psychology Science and editor-in-chief of the American Psychological Association's journal Emotion. DeSteno received his PhD from Yale University and has contributed to the New York Times and the Boston Globe, among other publications. He currently resides in Massachusetts.
