At CrimeReads she tagged female con artists in shows, podcasts, and in four books, including:
The Confidence Game by Maria KonnikovaRead about another book on the list.
This book was never far from my side as I wrote The Lies I Tell as it goes into great detail about the psychology of con artists, both men and women. It’s filled with fascinating stories about the most famous con artists throughout time and how they continue to find willing victims.
The Confidence Game is among Aja Raden's top ten books about lies and liars. Erica Bauermeister called it "a thorough, entertaining look into the perplexities and complexities of human behavior." Lisa Black says it "is a dive into the psychology of belief, why we trust, why intelligent, successful people fall for what seems, in hindsight, the most fantastical bald-faced lies ever to fall on all-too-willing ears."
