Book excerpt: Facts, Lies, Deceptions, and Fantasy: Book II of the Woohox Chronicles fills in some of the blanks of book 1, answers a lingering question or two, and offers more twists and turns as the Long Bow-Wanderhorse clans fight to save the ancestral home of First Nations people worldwide. Marin is still missing. Windsongs brothers Ryce and Bruce are chasing pipe dreams, following myths and legends in the jungles of the Amazon until Ryce steps across a quantum string, taking the entire Kayapo nation with him. And there is still no hope of Marins return. Windsong is at a loss and about to lose her mind. Meanwhile, mystery and deception abound in Chicago and Washington as Particia Molinari weaves her webs, enticing congressmen and military personnel with her stories of weapons of mass destruction and stealth all being fabricated in the desert of Sonora. The Fein farm collective rallies around the Long Bow-Wanderhorse clan as they ward off the greed and avarice of Particia Molinari and her associates. When will Marin return home? And what of Ryce and the mysterious Ethan Moore of Arslan Moor? Kayapo, Arapaho, medieval crusaders, an Australian surfing team, and the Secret Service are intertwined in the latest chapter of the Woohox Chronicles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelby Jane Cooper is seventeen, pretty and quiet. It's just Shelby and her mom, Shaylene, a court stenographer who wears pyjama jeans, stitches tapestry, eats ice-cream for dinner and likes to keep Shelby safe. So safe she barely goes out. So safe she doesn't go to school. Because anything could happen, to a girl like Shelby. Anything. When Shelby gets knocked down by a car, it's not just her leg that's broken: Shelby's world is shattered. Her mom turns up to collect her and drives off into the night, like it's the beginning of a road trip, like two criminals on the run, like Thelma and Louise or Bonnie and Clyde. And somehow, everywhere she looks, there's a coyote watching her, talking to her, telling her not to believe. Who is Shelby Jane Cooper? If the person who keeps you safe also tells you lies, who can you trust?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The local and regional shows staged throughout America use musical theater’s inherent power of deception to cultivate worldviews opposed to mainstream ideas. Jake Johnson reveals how musical theater between the coasts inhabits the middle spaces between professional and amateur, urban and rural, fact and fiction, fantasy and reality, and truth and falsehood. The homegrown musical provides a space to engage belief and religion—imagining a better world while creating opportunities to expand what is possible in the current one. Whether it is the Oklahoma Senior Follies or a Mormon splinter group’s production of The Sound of Music, such productions give people a chance to jolt themselves out of today’s post-truth malaise and move toward a world more in line with their desires for justice, reconciliation, and community. Vibrant and strikingly original, Lying in the Middle discovers some of the most potent musical theater taking place in the hoping, beating hearts of Americans.

And find the sacred object they did. But sometimes fulfilling a quest doesn't bring serenity but instead madness untold. Now that the Lightstone has finally been found, Morjin will use all of his talents to get it back. Val's victory in Argattha was only the beginning of a war with Morjin. Val knows that he alone must protect the sacred vessel. But he is coming to understand just what powers he is confronting and he is not sure that he is strong enough to follow the path of righteousness. He wonders who he can trust to help him as he encounters treasonous plots and betrayal by those closest to him, evidence of Morjin's power to destroy him and take the Lightstone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered if someone's telling you the truth? As a licensed psychotherapist, the author's presented daily with stories of peoples' lives, from which he needs to tease out the truth not just a challenge for counselors and therapists, but for all of us. We're all constantly presented with portrayals' of the truth, from news accounts, to media reports, memoirs, the justice system, medical establishment, and daily interactions with friends and strangers. Many of us want the truth to be handed to us, so we do not have to search within for it. Often we don't know how to search within. In each chapter, he presents ways to do that. In AN EXPLORATION OF TRUTH; A Tapestry of Fact and Fiction, William Kaufman presents an uncommon approach to examining the nature of truth. In his dynamic theory of truth', he demonstrates that a deeper understanding of truth exists when we approach it as a process that can never be fixed in any particular dimension. He warns readers to beware of anybody who endeavors to provide them the truth; that it amounts to giving them directions to the treasure at the end of the rainbow. He challenges readers to seek within themselves to discover truth and provides them with the means to go about it. Dr. Kaufman has crafted a unique structure by creating a tapestry that reflects the ways truth laces its way throughout our daily lives: Alternating with chapters that examine each specific area, he weaves a story line that provides examples of, and integrates, those ideas, compelling the reader along. This book is for readers who are concerned about matters of truth, not as something easily presented to them, but rather as integral to their process of inner growth; people searching for answers and guidance for self-discovery.

Book excerpt: Detecting Malingering and Deception: Forensic Distortion Analysis (FDA-5), Third Edition maintains the tradition of the prior two editions, following the Forensic Distortion Analysis (FDA) model.

Recommendations and guidelines for the practicing clinician are offered throughout the book, including real-world cases to inform and enlighten, particularly in unique cases or those in which the certain outcomes are unexpected. Key Features: Outlines the role of the forensic professional in applying and integrating methods assessment in deception and distortion Provides base-rates for deception-related behavior and events, especially useful in report writing or courtroom testimony as an expert witness Presents the latest advances in methodology and technology to assist in the search for ground truth in applied settings and situations Applies forensic distortion analysis to evaluate the deception-related findings and statements of other professionals involved in a particular case New coverage includes sections on deception analysis for collectivities, including media groups, contemporary politics, cross-national corporations, conflict, and terrorism Detecting Malingering and Deception incorporates the latest research, providing practical application to utilize information and evaluative methods as they pertain to deception-related settings and situations. Sample reports and extensive graphs, tables, charts, and histograms are provided, and every chapter has been updated with new studies and investigations. The Third Edition boasts several new chapters and updated working appendices of coverage to expand the exploration of deception addressing advances in the field, and our current understanding of the phenomenon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia is a topic of enormous human, medical, economic, legal and ethical importance. Its importance grows as more of us live longer. The legal and ethical problems it raises are complex, intertwined and under-discussed. This book brings together contributions from clinicians, lawyers and ethicists – all of them world leaders in the field of dementia – and is a comprehensive, scholarly yet accessible library of all the main (and many of the fringe) perspectives. It begins with the medical facts: what is dementia? Who gets it? What are the current and future therapeutic and palliative options? What are the main challenges for medical and nursing care? The story is then taken up by the ethicists, who grapple with questions such as: is it legitimate to lie to dementia patients if that is a kind thing to do? Who is the person whose memory, preferences and personality have all been transformed by their disease? Should any constraints be placed on the sexual activity of patients? Are GPS tracking devices an unpardonable interference with the patient's freedom? These issues, and many more, are then examined through legal lenses. The book closes with accounts from dementia sufferers and their carers. It is the first and only book of its kind, and the authoritative text. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Family Law online service.

Book excerpt: The Truth About Lying is a book about how and why people lie, how we respond when others lie to us, how to tell when someone is lying, and what to do about it. The book includes a questionnaire to determine your own Lie-Q Score: how much you lie. As the book illustrates, we lie for all kinds of reasons-to protect ourselves, gain an advantage, avoid punishment, protect other's feelings, escape blame, or get out of something we don't want to do. Though philosophers, religious leaders, teachers, and parents tell us lying is morally wrong-at some time, everyone does it. And in the last decade, we have seen more and more examples of lying in the daily news. The Truth About Lying provides a broad overview of the subject in a book that has become a classic. It begins with an overview of the pervasiveness of lying today and throughout history. Then, it discusses the range of lies, reasons people lie, and different types of lies in different situations, using many stories from ordinary, respectable people to illustrate. The concluding chapters discuss how readers can deal with lying in their own lives.
