The "Psychological Subtleties" series is considered by many to be the ultimate

mentalism toolbox. Rarely do you find a magician, particularly in the

mentalism community, who does not use some idea, trick or routine that has

been inspired by Banachek's magical philosophy, performances, or writings.

With this third book he continues to inspire readers by offering additional

fresh and creative ideas along with full routines from both himself and his

friends from around the globe. Psychological Subtleties 3 has dozens of

routines filled with layers of subtleties and psychological principles for

your mentalism/magic toolbox. These are just some of the topics covered across

fifteen chapters: Dealing with Difficult Spectators; Creating the Perfect

Situation; Verbal "dual reality;" One of Banachek's favorite ploys: the

Cheshire Cat Principle; how to use various psychological principles to force

playing cards; a number of calendar effects, including Kenton's Kalendar which

used to sell alone for 20.00; Subtle Psychokinesis; More of Banachek's

excellent work on telephone magic; Revisiting Banachek's "Reversal" principle;

Optical illusions as applied to psychic effects; Lottery and betting

predictions; Some of the bold subtleties used by Dunninger on stage and behind

the microphone; one of Banachek's most coveted methods for predicting the

headlines of the newspaper. Pages: 226 - Hardbound with Dust Jacket.
