9You are the most important person in your life. To Tell The Truth... reveals how you can tap into the vast store of life knowledge at your fingertips simply by focusing on yourself and humanity rather than on the groups to which you belong. It's just a matter of unlocking your mind to what's already there and believing what you already know. Think creatively. Look in the spaces that we see but usually ignore. You're smarter than you think. Take advantage of it. Believe in yourself and become who you really are. The author addresses much of the world's "common knowledge" ...seldom put in perspective...(and) pushes readers to reinvestigate, redefine, and...question all of this knowledge they have taken as fact. (The) language is wholly immersing, thought-provoking and insightful. The narration has a consistent flow and moves from one topic to the next in a manner that is relational and builds off previous ideas. This type of narration demands deeper thought and reflection on part of the reader. The author speaks directly to the reader, using the pronouns "you" and "your"... (He) creates a tone...that is intimate, thoughtful, and demanding of personal reflection/deep thought. This...is a catalyst for reader involvement and direct interaction between the reader and the text, making this...a great resource for curious readers." Further, the author does a fantastic job of breaking down intricate concepts and ideas...so that readers readily understand them before (he) moves on to more in-depth discussion of the concept or idea. (He) is thorough yet concise in his explanations, ensuring the reader's comprehension of the topic before moving forward.
