How do you trap someone in a lie? For centuries, all manner of truth-seekers have used the lie detector. This title unpacks the history of this device and explores the interesting and often surprising connection between technology and popular culture.
He examines how the machine emerged as a technology of truth, transporting readers back to the obscure origins of criminology itself, ultimately concluding that the lie detector owes as much to popular culture as it does to factual science.
