Eye-opening, enlightening, and utterly engaging, How to Spot a Liar in 7 Seconds or Less is an essential addition to the bookshelf of anyone who wants to learn what makes people tick, what motivates liars to bend the truth, and how to defend themselves against deceivers and others who want to take advantage of them.

In our most dire moments, humans will fight, struggle, and triumph—no matter how unlikely the chance for survival.

Including dynamic illustrations, sidebars, and callouts, each story explores the physiological responses of the human body under unbearable conditions, how to counteract them, and strategies for survival from doctors and psychologists.
