Overview

To me, a card trick or a brain teaser is not just a way to impress and elude others, or a way to show off by figuring out a trick I've been shown; it's much more profound than that. To me, they are a way of opening up an entirely different way of thinking. Tricks helped me improve my ability to think outside the box, not limit myself while searching for solutions, and trained me in using every bit of information given to me in order to understand how things work, not only for tricks but on a day to day basis with life. Tricks are also a good way to prove to others that things they thought impossible are quite plausible. A simple card trick can leave even the most skeptical of spectators wondering how it happened and not only that; they might even beg you for the secret. Even more importantly, to me, a trick is the perfect way to put a smile on someone's face. This book contains all the material I have ever learned and performed. Each trick is explained in a step-by-step procedure making it easier to follow, and the requirements for each trick are explained along the way.

Author Information

From a young age magic always fascinated me as I'm sure it did you; whether you admit it or not. Little did I know that I would soon grow up to find it as extensively useful as it is entertaining. At the age of sixteen, my devotion for magic turned primarily to cards and I eventually started performing to friends, family and, well, the mirror. So here's my story. After ages of studying, studying and more studying, I realized that my brain had decided to retain almost nothing. So one day I decided to take a break and found myself watching numerous videos regarding magic tricks. Whilst watching, I challenged myself to solving and figuring out the methodology behind each trick and succeeded in doing so many times. When I eventually returned to my studies, my brain began to associate and organize the topics at hand in a comprehensive manner. Hours later, I decided to take another break and watched a few more videos. Once again, I returned to my studying only to realize that not only was I absorbing the current information like a sponge, but I could still remember the information from my last break. My brain had somehow begun to reorganize and appropriate the material in accordance to its own manner of functioning. Long story short, one year of high-school and four years of university later, after having watched countless videos and read books so as to learn the %u201Ctheories%u201D behind magic tricks and performances, I thought it was about time I did something to contribute to the magic world; and here it is.
