In this ride through recent news events, literature, philosophy and history, Kieron O'Hara examines the vital questions of how trust is built up and how it collapses.
From Aristotle to Nick Leeson, from Machiavelli to Naomi Klein, from the Book of Job to Blairite newspeak and from Enron to nanotechnology, he explores the impact of this crisis on our daily lives, animating theory with well-known recent examples which help us make sense of the scares in our newspapers.
