TOM PHILLIPS IS A VERY CLEVER, VERY FUNNY MAN Greg Jenner

This is a book about TRUTH - and all the ingenious ways, throughout history, that weve managed to avoid it.

We live in a post-truth age, were told. The US has a president who openly lies on a daily basis (or who doesnt even know whats true, and doesnt care). The internet has turned our everyday lives into a misinformation battleground. People dont trust experts any more.

But was there ever really a golden age of truth-telling? As the editor of the UKs leading independent fact-checker, Tom Phillips deals with complete bollocks every day. Here, he tells the story of how we humans have spent history lying to each other - and ourselves - and asks an important question: how can humanity move towards a truthier future?
