Truth did not die in a single dramatic moment. It declined slowly - eroded by speed, overload, mistrust, and fatigue. The Death of the Truth examines how shared standards once allowed diverse societies to resolve disagreement through evidence, procedure, and restraint. As those supports weakened, truth did not disappear; it lost its ability to bind. What remained was noise, fragmentation, and competing realities that no longer recognised common ground. This book is not a polemic, but an obituary. It traces what truth was, how it was maintained, why it faltered, and what replaced it - narrative, identity, emotion, and power. Clear-eyed and measured, it asks what becomes of public life when reality can no longer settle disputes.
