This is a book about authentic fakes, admirable forgeries, and imagined representations of tainted reality: things that are less than meet the eye. Through nine questionable cultural treasures, readers meet those who make, sell, and buy fakes, and through these, explore their own views about whats real, whats fake, and why they should care.

This book profiles some of the handful of people who rescued significant cultural treasures that would or may have been otherwise lost to humankind. Some, like Dr. Assad, were on a noble mission, but that is not always the case. Some are motivated by profit, fame, gratitude, or personal advancement.
