Three former CIA officers - the world's foremost authorities on recognizing deceptive behaviour - share their techniques for spotting a lie.
Philip Houston's twenty-five-year career with the CIA included thousands of interviews and interrogations for the CIA and other federal agencies, both as an investigator and as a polygraph examiner. He, along with former CIA agents Mike Floyd and Susan Carnicero, founded Qverity, a provider of behavioural analysis and screening services for private - and public-sector clients worldwide.
