  Abstract:  Published by RAO Publishing House in 2012, it catches our attention from the very beginning. Its title points to the way human beings can use a behavior which others perceive as being based on true, while it has to do more with a false image promoted in order to get some advantages. It is interesting to read that this behavior has positive aspects, but the negative ones are present, too. On its 220 pages the writer – which has a great life and professional experience – help us to catch upon the way human beings are, using examples both from ancient times, and from the present. The book intends to make young people with little experience wiser, and those with greater life experience, more skillful. As such, the book can be regarded as a compass helping the reader to walk through meanders of the life, where he could face in each moment people who bring to the forefront one the two parts of human characteristics which place them in the category of fraudens, or praedator, respectively.
