3.0 out of 5 stars No deception here, Jun 26 1999

By A Customer

Although this book does not really say anything new about the polygraph or about how to "beat" it, the book will nonetheless be useful for those in post-tramautic shock from a polygraph experience. It is patent and utter nonesense to suggest that this machine is 99 percent accurate in detecting "lies". The only thing a polygraph does is detect changes in heartbeat, breathing, etc. As the author points out, there is not a shred of evidence to suggest that reactions such as this are related to a lie--they may be, but are just as likely to indicate stress or a sensitivity to certain questions. Clifton's book is readable and requires no scientific background. Those of you who have had the unfortunate experience of undergoing this "vodoo" science might want to give it a read, just to remind yourself that there is nothing wrong with you--the people who believe in this stuff are the ones who are delusional.
