Looking For The Lie

This article by Robin Marantz Henig seemed interesting to me since I have an adequate and informative background regarding instrumentation and there sole purpose in our world today. The interest relied entirely on how people lie, how is it possible to cheat a lie, how to and not get caught as well as how we can somewhat catch a lie by our instincts and thelier's facial expression. It is very amusing how the perspective in this article show how to lie and how we can detect a lie by brain activity.



I am not much of a fan of magazines, but from New York Times Magazine, I cannot speculate exactly what the reader's may be looking into by reading this article but I could somewhat understand that the readers may be interested on the amount of information displayed. I think as well for the safety measures, the readers would probably be concerned about ways to prevent simply how to lie. The polygraph test may not be the only solution but as we see, other forms of technology is very dependent in order tostrenghthen the detection of a lie.



If i was to place myself as a reader who has no knowledge at all about lies, lie detection and how the possibility of a lie may hinder the brain activity, I would greatly be interested in this matter on how beating a lie may be possible, and how lie detector tests may not be the solution to this problem. With what we see in our world today, the technology we have today may not be a solution to detect a lie, or perhaps produce results that can be outside our range of detection. How can we really, but honestly know innocence and guilt with not fully trusting our modalities.



The change in brain activity, or perhaps like it was noted that it would be a breakthrough to tell a lie from DNA can evidently be another solution to the problem. Not only does this article try to convey the meaning of a lie, but how a lie can also be "kind" and harmful, or how it can be peaceful or disastrous. The technologies we have from and MRI scan, to a polygraph or to other technologies show the reader's that there is a chance that detecting a lie is simply not an easy task. The understanding in which brain areas become aroused is still significantly under study. With the development of new detectors, there is a need to educate the audience as it may pose more feelings of security that detecting a lie is becoming to be more understanding and perhaps may be an easy task sometime in the future. Knowledge is power as well know, and understanding these remarkable breakthroughs is a good interest to the audience as it has drawn my keen interest in the magnificence of brain activity and lie detection.
