Introduction -- Is the "whole truth" attainable? -- Truthfulness, deceit, and trust -- Never to lie? -- Weighing the consequences -- White lies -- Excuses -- Justification -- Lies in a crisis -- Lying to liars -- Lying to enemies -- Lies protecting peers and clients -- Lies for the public good -- Deceptive social science research -- Paternalistic lies -- Lies to the sick and dying -- Conclusion

Lying is a penetrating and thoughtful examination of one of the most pervasive yet little discussed aspects of our public and private lives. Beginning with the moral questions raised about lying since antiquity, Sissela Bok takes up the justifications offered for all kinds of lies- white lies, lies to the sick and dying, lies of parents to children, lies to enemies, lies to protect clients and peers. The consequences of such lies are then explored through a number of concrete situations in which people are involved, either as liars or as the victims of the lie
