Description

Statement Analysis® is the process of analyzing a persons words to see if the person is being truthful or deceptive. There are usually several ways you can phrase a statement. People will word their statement based on all their knowledge. Therefore, their statement may include information they did not intend to share. I Know You Are Lying will show you what to look for in a verbal and written statement to determine if a person is telling the truth. The Statement Analysis techniques will also show you how to obtain additional information from a statement. Also included is an analysis of eight high profile cases. An examination of these cases will help you review the Statement Analysis techniques, and it will show you who is being truthful and who is being deceptive in the following cases: - The Oklahoma City Bombing- The O.J. Simpson Murder Trial- Sexual Molestation Allegations Against Michael Jackson- The Assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.- The Lindbergh Kidnapping and the Trial of Bruno Richard Hauptmann- President Clinton and Monica Lewinsky Scandal- The Murder of Marylin Sheppard - The JonBenet Ramsey Murder Whether you are conducting an interview or listening to a conversation, when you use the Statement Analysis techniques you will be able to determine who is being truthful and who is being deceptive.

    • Fascinating book.
Page turner
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 11, 2023 by Vince Matlick
    • Concise
I first began to study Statement Analysis after the Susan Smith fiasco years ago. I have always been a person easily deceived by others, but was fascinated by human nature. Mark McClish's book, "I Know You Are Lying" is, perhaps, the most simple and straightforward book I have read on Statement Analysis. The chapter break downs make the material very easy to understand, and the famous cases are real page turners. McClish has no agenda; no political stance; and seems to care little for what may be popular or not: he just analyzes statements. What I found different with this book is his belief that people want to tell the truth. It has taken a few months to digest this. People, internally, don't want to lie, McClish explains, because of the stress it causes them. Having been trained to follow the interviewee's eyes, McClish has me much more focused on the words themselves, but here is the real key to the book: Read it, re read it, and read it again. Memorize the principles. After awhile, it will become second nature. As this tool is developed in your mind, it will become easier and easier to spot deception, or more commonly, things people leave out. A caveat: Solomon said that with much knowledge, comes sadness. It is true here. You will never listen to a political speech the same way again, which is a great place to train, but... what of your friends and relatives? What about those, as Mark shows, who do not wish to give a full answer as to why they are not coming to your party? You will spot the fact that they are withholding information from you, and it may bring some sadness. Also, you will listen carefully to your spouse and ESPECIALLY to your teenagers. My teens would get their friends to talk to me and I would be able to pick out the deception, which brought a good laugh (and still does), but what will you feel when you hear your own child being vague and deceptive? I live with that now, as it is a tool I am unable to shut down. For this reason, even co-workers can make me sad; as well as friends. With much knowledge, comes heaviness of heart. Ain't that the truth! Having said that, I love the book and would not trade the skill that I have sharpened in this volume for anything. There are other good works out there, but nothing seems to be as simplified and concise as this book. If you are in law enforcement, or investigate child abuse, insurance fraud, welfare fraud, or in business where you need to know the truth; or if you are just a person fascinated by human nature, you will love this book. January, 2009 Edit: Since first reading this book (3 times) I have also taken Mr. McClish's online course, and purchased his software (availble here at Amazon.) His online course is an 8 hour course that brings together everything from the book and is an excellent resource for anyone who wishes to sharpen their skills. Statementanalysis dot com has the details, and as a companion to the book, it is of great value to those of us who, in our professions, need to recognize deception. UPDATE: NOVEMBER 2009 I am on my 5th read of this book! I have also read many other works but find that I return to McClish's book repeatedly, as it is the clearest and most concise study offered. As I have practiced his techniques, I have developed the skill to analyze "on the fly", as his "red flag" training is something that has become part of my subconcious. I have also revisited the original workbook from the online course many times, and may not take the course again. Although I recommend other works, this text is, by far, the most user friendly. Besides the simple format, it is a real page turner of fascinating cases. ***** Stars for clarity. I highly recommend contacting the author and taking his online course. It is practical and "to the point". It is fascinating and has many practical samples to work from. ... show more

    • Really interesting book. And very useful.
This book is a revelation and has been a refresher of the techniques and material of the Scientific Content Analysis (SCAN) course I attended some two decades ago. The book is written in a manner that easily describes the concepts and applications, that anyone can use. The best part for me, was the real case studies that helped see how it is applied but I was in the end finding other nuggets that were not mentioned in the assessment. The book is easy to read and one, that I finished in just three 'sittings'... Great book for investigations, intelligence, risk, fraud and virtually any other field where the identification of deception is required. Looking forward to reading Mark McClure's other book now..."Don't be deceived" I recommend this book - do yourself a favour ... show more

    • Excellent read
Presented really well, great information. A little repetitive and contradictory in some parts.

    • Uncomfortable
This book is sitting in my office on the bookshelf behind my desk... The words jump off the cover, "I KNOW YOU ARE LYING" I feel so... guilty... so... vulnerable... One of my employees gave this book to me as a gift. I think he was trying to send me a message. Well, I read the book and it really does help you detect wordfraud. "I know you are lying" serves as an excellent entry into the world of deceit detection. Specifically it details statement analysis and demonstrates the principles in eight separate case studies. After reading it you'll know all of your friends are lying to you all of the time. If you haven't read the book yet, I'll give you some insight: You do look fat. You are dull. You are not attractive. Your hairpiece is totally noticeable. Everyone knows it was you who farted in church. At the same time you realize everyone is lying to you, it should also dawn on you that you now have a superpower! Truthman! Able to detect a lie in a single sentence! I bet you'll bag a lot of chicks with that ability.... ... show more

    • Knowing you are Lying
To know one is lying is not the same as proving one is lying. Mark McClish's book has many good points on what to look for when analysing a statement for truth. The theory is that a liar is inclined to make statements that have semblances of the truth but stated in a way they think covers up what they want to hide. With that knowledge one can investigate those points to prove the truth. I thought the first half of this book contained what I wanted to know, but the last chapters of actual cases were a little iffy in that they did not show that this type of analysis was "right-on-the-money" accurate, just indicators of what to look for and investigate further. I reccomend this book for those interested in using statement analysis as (a beginning) part of a larger investigation. Don't bother reading it if you think it could be a way to prove someone is lying by only analysing their statements. Thank you Mr McClish for what you have written. ... show more
