Big lies : from Socrates to social media / Mark Kurlansky ; illustrated by Eric Zelz. by Kurlansky, Mark. Tilbury House Publishers, c2022. Call #: 177.3 K96bL Subjects Truthfulness and falsehood.   Critical thinking.   Corruption.   Misinformation.   Disinformation.   Propaganda -- History. ISBN:  9780884489122 0884489124 Description:  309 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographic references (pages 305-309) and index. Summary:  Big lies are told by governments, politicians, and corporations to avoid responsibility, cast blame on the innocent, win elections, disguise intent, create chaos, and gain power and wealth. Big lies are as old as civilization; they corrupt public understanding and discourse, turn science upside down, and reinvent history. The future stewards of our world require a how-to manual for seeing through big lies and thinking critically, because big lies require believers, and democracy depends on independent thought.
