Eric Lawton reviewed Liars and outliers by Bruce Schneier
Review of 'Liars and outliers' on 'Storygraph'
4 stars
Very worth reading for anyone interested in policy and politics.
It seems that trust is in decline as liars can gain high office without even needing to cover up many of their lies, they can say one thing one day and the opposite on another.
This is a very useful book showing how trust is more important than money in building any form of community, from local to global scale. In fact, the value of money is itself founded on our degree of trust in the institutions that stand behind it.
It took me so long to read because somehow it got pushed down my reading stack :)
