The (honest) truth about dishonesty : how we lie to everyone--especially ourselves / Dan Ariely.

• Why is dishonesty so interesting? -- Testing the Simple Model of Rational Crime (SMORC) -- Fun with the fudge factor -- Golf -- Blinded by our own motivations -- Why we blow it when we're tired -- Why wearing fakes makes us cheat more -- Cheating ourselves -- Creativity and dishonesty: We are all storytellers -- Cheating as an infection: How we catch the dishonesty germ -- Collaborative cheating: Why two heads aren't necessarily better than one -- A semioptimistic ending: People don't cheat enough!. 

• "Most of us think of ourselves as honest, but, in fact, we all cheat. From Washington to Wall Street, the classroom to the workplace, unethical behavior is everywhere. None of us is immune, whether it's a white lie to head off trouble or padding our expense reports. In The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, award-winning, bestselling author Dan Ariely shows why some things are easier to lie about than others; how getting caught matters less than we think in whether we cheat; and how business practices pave the way for unethical behavior, both intentionally and unintentionally. Ariely explores how unethical behavior works in the personal, professional, and political worlds, and how it affects all of us, even as we think of ourselves as having high moral standards. But all is not lost. Ariely also identifies what keeps us honest, pointing the way for achieving higher ethics in our everyday lives"--Back cover.
