    Answer&Explanation:

    He argued that there is a Professional life which is ruled by one of two approaches.

    Priority View: Ordinary moral obligations is a priority. This is where there is no particular moral complications.

    Parallel View: This is where professional life creates moral complications.

    Based on the priority view, both lies and deception are wrong, however lies are worse than deception.

    He defines lies as a false statement made by speaker whilst well are that it is false just to make someone believe in a false statement.

    Deceptions enhances a chance to make a false conclusion. It occurs when we are not given the information that we need to make proper conclusion.

    On the parallel view, lying is considered wrong whilst deceptions isn't morally wrong.

    Ellin argues that we have a right to receive true information sonic someone lies to us they have violated that right; our right to the truth, however we don't always have a right to information so when we are not give information there is no violations, hence lying isn't always the same as deception.

    According to Ellin what story makes lying worse, but both of them wrong?

    - lies make it easier to have a false conclusion than deception because one can not stay away from a false inference. This means by telling a lie a person has actual exploited the position of the listener, this makes it worse.

    - Liars are solely liable for their lies that they have spread whilst a deceiver becomes a co-agent and then takes less responsibility.

    -Due to lies langauge usage falls without the truth
