Law and Lies: Deception and Truth-Telling in the American Legal System
Austin Sarat
This is the first book to investigate lies and deception in the American legal system. Analyzing examples from undercover police deception to lying under oath and from political lying to the military's 'Don't ask, don't tell' policy, it reveals that the government's stance towards truth is anything but simple.
