Описание:

Dan Ariely, behavioral economist and the New York Times bestselling author of The Upside of Irrationality and Predictably Irrational, examines the contradictory forces that drive us to cheat and keep us honest, in this groundbreaking look at the way we behave: The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty.

From ticket-fixing in our police departments to test-score scandals in our schools, from our elected leaders extra-marital affairs to the Ponzi schemes undermining our economy, cheating and dishonesty are ubiquitous parts of our national news cycleand inescapable parts of the human condition.

Drawing on original experiments and research, in the vein of Freakonomics, The Tipping Point, and Survival of the Sickest, Ariely revealshonestlywhat motivates these irrational, but entirely human, behaviors.

Описание: Synopsis: Eric Ambler, John Buchan, Erskine Childers, Arthur Conan Doyle, Joseph Conrad, Len Deighton, Ian Fleming, Frederick Forsyth, Graham Greene, Geoffrey Household, John le Carre, Robert Ludlum and Joseph Hone. What do they have in common? They wrote spy thrillers and all have appeared in a recent survey of the fifty best books in that genre. Although he may be the least known, the inclusion of Joseph Hone was not eccentric. The particular title chosen was The Private Sector, the first of his Peter Marlow titles. The author and the title are fully deserving of this accolade. 'Joe Hone is a marvelously compelling, acute and subtle writer of spy novels. The “Peter Marlow” sequence should be rediscovered and acclaimed as enduring classics of the genre.' William Boyd The time is May, 1967 in the weeks leading up to the Arab/Israeli six day war. The place is Cairo. The story is Peter Marlow's, an Irish teacher and secret agent sent from London to find his friend and fellow spy, Henry Edwards who has vanished from Cairo. During the course of this fool's errand, he also finds his former wife, Bridget, who is now deeply involved with Edwards both emotionally and professionally. Marlow moves easily in British and Egyptian intelligence branches, attaching his allegiance to neither until he becomes the unwitting victim of a failed plot to topple Nasser. Credible and dramatic, this is a story of callous political and human intrigue and of a mission which can only succeed if none of the men return. Faber Finds is reissuing all four of the Peter Marlow spy novels: The Private Sector, The Sixth Directorate, The Valley of the Fox and The Flowers of the Forest. 'An absolutely terrific espionage novel. It's always a mark of a good writer if he can take a genre that a good many other writers have worked in and bring something new and distinctive to it. That Joseph Hone has certainly done.' James Dickey 'A brilliant and calculated spy story ... His characters and the quality of the writing are so good that he has transcended the usual limitations of the genre.' Times Literary Supplement 'Mr Hone writes Len Deighton into the ground. It's much more than just a spy story, and set in the Egypt he knows so well that he occasionally out-Durrell's Durrell.' New Statesman

Описание: Synopsis: In prison his name had been Peter Marlow. When British Intelligence released him to impersonate a dangerous KGB agent, he became George Graham, a man with an incredible past, and with a very questionable future. But even the British didn't know everything about Graham. There were secrets within secrets, as Marlow discovered. Then he came face to face with George Graham's mistress and thought the game was up. But it was just the beginning ... 'Joe Hone is a marvelously compelling, acute and subtle writer of spy novels. The “Peter Marlow” sequence should be rediscovered and acclaimed as enduring classics of the genre.' William Boyd 'Intelligent, sharp and deviously plotted ... Here is a new force in the field of spy stories.' Daily Telegraph 'Unusual, thinking man's thriller ... with echoes of writers like Greene and le Carre and a continual convincing atmosphere of uneasy menace and grey betrayal.' Sunday Express 'Joseph Hone's The Sixth Directorate ... is one of the best suspense novels of the last ten years. It has elegance, wit, sympathy, irony, surprise, action, a rueful love affair and a melancholy 'Decline of the West' mood. Only the crimes in its pages separate the book from what is known as serious novels.' Anatole Broyard, New York Times 'Fast, sophisticated, splendidly authentic, Joseph Hone writes like an angel about devil's work.' Charles McCarry This is the second of Joseph Hone's Peter Marlow's spy novels, the other three being The Private Sector, The Valley of the Fox and The Flowers of the Forest. All are being reissued in Faber Finds.
