Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Prepare to have your conception of truth rocked to its very foundation, as first-time novelist Halperin creates a prophetic, all-too conceivable world of the near future. A machine is built that can detect lies with 100% accuracy. Lawyers find themselves out of work as crime is eliminated; political candidates can no longer harbour hidden agendas. The Truth Machine reshapes the very nature of humanity. But ultimately the fate of the earth rests with mankind. Are we up to the challenge?
James L. Halperin, a Harvard graduate, now directs the world's largest rare coin company. He is already hard at work on his next novel.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
