I guess it depends on what the book is about. ;) It also depends on what you think "truth" is, and that's a pretty big issue. You might go to Wikipedia and do a search for "truth theory." If you go beyond the more mundane ideas of "truth" that tend to equate it with "fact," then I think you'll find something that is more akin to "genuine." For that, I think a truly candid memoir could work. If you're one for fastidious record keeping, you could write a book of all the appointments, etc. you've had in your life--anything that would be written down in a planner--and that would be true. You could take it a step further and include receipts, bank records, taxes, etc. You could theoretically do it with someone else's records as well, but I think verifying authenticity would be dicey. If you were to do the above painstakingly, I think a story of sorts would emerge. It's a very postmodern sort of project, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's been done. I think it's actually quite likely that it's at least been simulated.
Neat question.

some issues we merely can not wrap our ideas around. Like residing a suited existence as Jesus did. yet merely with the aid of fact we can't be attentive to how the Bible has been handed on for years and nevertheless is proclaimed to be genuine, does not recommend it is not genuine with the aid of too lots time between then and now. The Bible does not contradict itself in any way. for this reason if there became into something in it that wasn't genuine, it may unavoidably contain a contradiction. it is actual astounding, the Bible keeps proving itself genuine. confident, I reported instruct. Take Jesus working example. there have been some 4 hundred years between the hot testomony and previous testomony and there have been over 3 hundred prophecies bearing on Jesus. permit's placed this into attitude. placed a fence 2 sense extreme around the state of texas and fill that finished section with one dollar funds. in the midst of those, paint one purple and throw it into the others. Now, blindfold a guy and deliver him strolling and whilst he alternatives one up it occurs to be the purple coin. it is the possibility of Jesus being the guy who fulfills each and every a sort of prophecies. ok thats the photograph, once you're extra of a mathematical individual, this is the ratio. one million:1000000000000000000000000000000000000 it may look loopy to us mere human beings....despite the fact that it keeps showing that it is genuine. How??? the only answer to that's that us human beings for specific could not do it, by means of making use of God it keeps to be genuine.

You would have to write a preface saying that everything in your book was TRUE (to the best of your knowledge) and then only write what you actually thought was true. It would then be TRUE for You, and could be said to be your TRUTH.

see.. truth or lie.. it depends on people's perception..
say u write a book,one will say it full of truth and other will say it has flaw...
You feel things as true that has happened to you....
so If u want to write a book full of truth...it can be only auto-biography about you...

I don't think you can because our versions of the truth change with time. What topic do you want to write about??
Good luck

That's difficult.
I would advise that it be short. For example:
Title your book "This is the Truth"
The content of the book could read as follows. "The title of this book is 'This is the Truth'"
Anything else would be pushing it

Don't put anything fiction in it at all. Make it all nonfiction which is telling the pure truth.

There is nothing called absolute truth.It is relative.You can see SUN RISE IN EAST.It is truth.But if you go scientifically,Sun does not rise or set,It is false.It is the movement of earth(rotation) which gives the illusion.Similarly due to human limitations ,absolute truth is a myth.,you cannot find it.
