  From breaking the law to breaking a promise, how do people lie and how can they be caught? 
   
   
   
  In this revised edition, Paul Ekman, a renowned expert in emotions research and nonverbal communication, adds a new chapter to present his latest research on his groundbreaking inquiry into lying and the methods for uncovering lies. Ekman has figured out the most important behavioral clues to deceit; he has developed a one-hour self-instructional program that trains people to observe and understand "micro expressions"; and he has done research that identifies the facial expressions that show whether someone is likely to become violent—a self-instructional program to train recognition of these dangerous signals has also been developed. 
   
   
   
  Telling Lies describes how lies vary in form and how they can differ from other types of misinformation that can reveal untruths. It discusses how a person's body language, voice, and facial expressions can give away a lie but still fool professional lie hunters—even judges, police officers, drug enforcement agents, and Secret Service agents.

  In the complex architecture of city-making, governance represents the invisible framework that shapes urban development, mediates competing interests, and determines whose voices influence the evolution of metropolitan spaces. Beyond physical infrastructure and economic dynamics, the political dimensions of urban environments—the policies, power structures, and institutional arrangements that guide development decisions—profoundly shape the trajectory of cities and the lived experiences of their inhabitants. This comprehensive exploration delves into the intricate domains of Urban Policy and Governance, The Politics of Urban Development, and Urban Renewal, examining how formal and informal power systems determine which neighborhoods flourish, which communities face displacement, and how the benefits and burdens of urban change are distributed. 
  The narrative of urban governance is fundamentally a story of contested visions, where multiple stakeholders—from elected officials and corporate interests to community organizations and marginalized populations—engage in complex negotiations over the future of shared urban spaces. By examining the historical evolution, contemporary challenges, and emerging paradigms of urban governance, this book illuminates how policy frameworks, political processes, and renewal strategies reflect deeper power dynamics and ideological perspectives about what cities should be and whom they should serve. Readers will journey through diverse urban contexts—from the boardrooms where development decisions are made to the grassroots movements that challenge established power structures—discovering how governance approaches have evolved from top-down interventions to more collaborative, participatory models that recognize the plurality of urban stakeholders.

  Augmented Reality and Virtual...

  Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have transformed the way we interact with digital environments, offering immersive experiences that blend the real and virtual worlds. While both technologies enhance perception, they do so in fundamentally different ways. AR overlays digital elements onto the real world, enriching reality with interactive, computer-generated enhancements. VR, on the other hand, creates fully immersive digital environments, transporting users into a completely virtual space where physical surroundings disappear. 
  The evolution of AR and VR has been a fascinating journey, driven by advancements in computing power, graphics rendering, and sensor technology. Early experiments in virtual reality can be traced back to the 1960s, with devices like the Sensorama and the first head-mounted displays. However, it wasn’t until the 2010s that VR technology became widely accessible, thanks to companies like Oculus, HTC, and Sony. AR’s development followed a different trajectory, gaining mainstream attention with mobile applications like Pokémon GO and smart glasses designed for enterprise use. 
  One of the key distinctions between AR and VR is their method of user interaction. AR enhances real-world experiences without replacing them, allowing users to see both physical and digital elements simultaneously. This has led to widespread adoption in fields such as retail, education, and healthcare. VR, in contrast, immerses users in entirely synthetic environments, making it ideal for gaming, training simulations, and remote collaboration. The level of immersion is influenced by factors such as display resolution, field of view, motion tracking, and haptic feedback, all of which contribute to a sense of presence within a virtual space.

  Secrets Beneath the Quicksand -...

  Quicksand has captivated human imagination for centuries. The very mention of the word conjures images of perilous, sinking terrain—an unpredictable force of nature that can drag the unsuspecting into its depths. Whether through its portrayal in popular culture or through whispered warnings of its presence in remote areas, quicksand has become synonymous with danger. However, while it holds a certain allure in our collective consciousness, the science behind it remains less understood, adding to its mystique and intrigue. 
    
  Historically, quicksand has been a feature of many adventure tales and thrillers, often depicted as a life-threatening trap that can ensnare anyone who ventures too close. In movies, books, and TV shows, it serves as an almost mythical obstacle, a place where time seems to stand still as one struggles to escape. These portrayals, however, often exaggerate the severity of quicksand’s danger, leading to misconceptions about its true nature. It’s important to acknowledge that while quicksand is indeed dangerous, it is rarely as deadly as it is made out to be in stories. Yet, the fascination it generates is undeniable, and its mysterious qualities continue to inspire both fear and curiosity. 
    
  The allure of quicksand is not just in its danger, but also in the mystery surrounding its behavior. Unlike ordinary land, quicksand behaves in a way that seems to defy common understanding. Its unique blend of sand, water, and clay creates a substance that can feel deceptively solid, only to give way under pressure. This paradox—the appearance of solid ground hiding a treacherous, fluid-like trap—adds to its power to intrigue and intimidate.
