Verdad

It is said that we live in a "post-truth" era. America had a president who outright lied on a daily basis (or who didn't even know what was true or care). The Internet has turned our daily lives into a battle of disinformation. People no longer trust experts. But has there really ever been a golden age of truthfulness? As the publisher of the UK's leading independent fact-checking organisation, Tom Phillips is confronted with utter bullshit on a daily basis. In this book, he tells the hilarious story of how we humans have never stopped lying to each other (and ourselves) over the centuries, and asks an important question: how can humanity move forward into a brighter future? truthful?
