Short Review: The Honest Truth About Dishonesty: How We Lie to Everyone–Especially Ourselves by Dan Ariely - great book on what science can tell us about lying and cheating and what can be done to minimize (or exacerbate) the problems. I am always a bit uncomfortable with small studies that are included in most behavior economics, but I trust the science here a bit more than in someone like Malcolm Gladwell's presentation because Ariely is an academic with an academic reputation to uphold.
