I read Sam Harris's "The End of Faith: Religion, Terror and the Future of Reason" years ago. I thought he was an excellent writer, and though I thought some of his positions on the subject of religion were a bit extremely Atheist and staunchly anti-religious (I tend to be more Agnostic), I could appreciate where he's coming from.
Reading "Lying", I found that same style, but appreciate where he's coming from in his view that lying is never acceptable. The book is a short read, the first half filled with his thoughts on why it's never okay to lie, and the second half being a transcript of a discussion he had with his inspiration for the book (which I only partially read).
