Unpositioned Something is wrong

Deceit and self-deception : fooling yourself the better to fool others / Robert Trivers

This work examines the evolutionary logic of self-deception, suggesting that individuals distort their own reality to more effectively deceive others. It explores how these biological mechanisms influence fields such as politics, religion, and social behaviour.
