Why are honest asylum seekers dismissed as liars? Former refugee and award-winning author Dina Nayeri bs with this question, turning to shocking and illuminating case studies in this book, which grows into a reckoning with our culture’s views on believability.

From persuading a doctor that she’d prefer a C-section to learning to “bullshit gracefully” at McKinsey to struggling, in her personal life, to believe her troubled brother-in-law, Nayeri explores an aspect of our society that is rarely held up to the light.

For fans of David Grann, Malcolm Gladwell, and Atul Gawande, Who Gets Believed? is a book as deeply personal as it is profound in its reflections on morals, language, human psychology, and the unspoken social codes that detee how we relate to one another.
