Dan Ariely, behavioral economist and the New York Times
bestselling author of The Upside of Irrationality
and Predictably Irrational, examines the
contradictory forces that drive us to cheat and keep us
honest, in this groundbreaking look at the way we behave:
The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty. From
ticket-fixing in our police departments to test-score
scandals in our schools, from our elected leaders’
extra-marital affairs to the Ponzi schemes undermining our
economy, cheating and dishonesty are ubiquitous parts of our
national news cycle—and inescapable parts of the human
condition. Drawing on original experiments and
research, in the vein of Freakonomics, The
Tipping Point, and Survival of the Sickest,
Ariely reveals—honestly—what motivates these irrational, but
entirely human, behaviors.
