This book tells you about every kind of lie there is! You can really relate to this book, you learn a lot about yourself in reading it and it helps to think honestly about what you have read, that is how you learn! I am a freshman in high school, and as many of you know, its not easy. Sometimes you don't kow who your friends are... This book helped with that because you know more about how and why they lie, more than they do! I have enjoyed this book very much. It has helped me to notice when my family and friends are lying to me. Its made me aware of how media and advertisers lie too. The world is full of lies! I think that anyone, any age, can relate to this book. Everyone is different, and every lie is different. I highly suggest this book!

This book was written primarily to help teenagers cope with the distortions, deceptions, fluff, and outright lies that confront us all, every day. Kincher doesn't preach truth, she illuminates it. Her book is thought provoking ... and fun ... no matter how old you are.

This book does have a lot of self-discovery experiments- in fact that's pretty much all it has. There isn't much information included to validate the experiments or to explain why they are significant to psychology. However, the book does refer you to other sources. I ordered the book, hoping to use it with my High School Gifted class but found that the text was a bit too juvenille. This book could be a good supplement to a psychology unit, but it is not something from which to teach.

This book is an excellent resource for your classroom. A learning tool for your children to discover who they really are!
