This book should be standard reading for mentalists. Bruce gives so much away, and so much of it can be used as parts of other routines.

His Georgia Magnet-type routine is gold as a quick example of mind control, leading into another routine.

Bruce has come up with things that work, not just ideas "not fully tested" in the real world.

This is a great book, and the $15.00 price tag is way too low.
