Paul Ekman is a renowned expert in emotions research and nonverbal communication. In Telling Lies , he describes how our language, facial expressions, and the way we hold our bodies can be read to tell whether we are being honest or not. Fox TV has created a series inspired by Ekman's work starring Tim Roth, of Reservoir Dogs and The Incredible Hulk , as Dr. Cal Lightman, who is hired by law enforcement agencies to spot deception and expose the truth in criminal investigations.For this edition, Ekman has added a new chapter on his latest research. He has figured out the most important behavioral clues to deceit, developed a one-hour self-instructional program that trains people to observe and understand 'micro expressions,' and done research that identifies the facial expressions that show if someone is likely to become violent. A self-instructional program to train recognition of these dangerous signals has also been developed.Lie to Me premieres on January 28, 2009.
