In Deceit and Self Deception Robert Trivers, whose work has been
acclaimed by figures such as Richard Dawkins and Steven Pinker,
looks at how and why we so often deceive ourselves. We lie to
ourselves every day: about how well we drive, how much we're
enjoying ourselves - even how good looking we are. In this
ground-breaking book, Robert Trivers examines not only how we
self-deceive, but also why, taking fascinating examples from
aviation disasters, con artists, sexual betrayals and conflicts
within families. Revealing, provocative and witty, Deceit and
Self-Deception is one of the most vital books written this century,
and will make you rethink everything that you think you know.
Robert Trivers is one of the leading figures pioneering the field
of sociobiology. He received his bachelors and PhD from Harvard
University. He has been on the faculty at Harvard, the University
of California, Santa Cruz, and Rutgers University. 'A remarkable
book, by a uniquely brilliant scientist' Richard Dawkins 'One of
the great thinkers in the history of Western thought' Steven Pinker
'Trivers ranks as one of the most important evolutionary theorists
of his generation' E. O. Wilson 'A powerful book ... essential for
anyone who wants to try to counter their own unconscious biases'
