In the deepest part of ourselves, we know that without truth, nothing is worth living or dying for. This is why the pursuit of truth has been-and will always be-a shared project of humankind. But why, then, do we lie almost instinctively? Why does the epidemic of cheating pervade every segment of society? Why are we so apathetic in the face of hypocrisy? Why do we feel the need to lie? Why do we resist letting truth set us free? What makes the act of being genuine so terrifying? Is it true that truth is just another name for opinions tailored to the social norms of a given time and place? Is truth changeable, or is it eternal?

To these questions-and many more-Dr. Maalouf offers sharp, bold answers that our world urgently needs, especially amid the evident and troubling decline in character, values, and virtues: the very foundation of civilization. The truth is, without truth, civilization cannot survive.

This little book tackles a gigantic subject and makes it accessible and understandable to all. With its groundbreaking yet simple language, it demonstrates intellectual courage by raising profound issues without compromise. It is a powerful contribution to the discourse on truth.
