Abstract

The concept of lying is an object of research in many humanities. Studying the re- search of this topic we may point different ways of lying which concern several main ques- tions: how to define a lie and how to lie skillfully. Despite interest in this field and studying researches of different authors, there is no unambiguous formula of finding out a lie or the law of ideal deception. The lie, as well as deception, is based on incompleteness of information, but, unlike deception, speaking doesn't conceal the known information and doesn't pursue other aims, except transfer of the message containing incomplete (or distorted) information [4]. The book "Lie psychology", written by Paul Ackman – is the result of long-term re- searches of one of large experts in the world in this field
