Book Synopsis Confessions of a Lie Detector by : Jim Wygant
Book excerpt: "Confessions of a Lie Detector" draws upon thirty years of working with people accused of crimes. Gordon Barland, retired Chief of the Research Division, Department of Defense Polygraph Institute, called this book a "must read." Barland said of the author, "He offers insights into why people lie, later confess, and yet sometimes recant." He characterized Wygant's writing as reflecting, "...the heart of a poet and soul of a philosopher." What happens to us when accused, rightly or wrongly? How do we defend ourselves? Here is the human side of the news, the deeper story that the media never reaches.
