13 Steps To Mentalism Tony Corinda Pdf
This book was originally written as a series of pamphlets for sale in “magic shops” all over the English-speaking world. I should point out here, to avoid confusion, that in this case “magic” refers exclusively to stage magic and not such Magic (or Magick) as people like Aleister Crowley discuss.

The book explains, mostly in very practical terms, the array or “tricks,” “gimmicks” or “swindles” (!) one can perform on stage in order to appear to be a mind reader in order to entertain an audience. This book was originally written as a series of pamphlets for sale in “magic shops” all over the English-speaking world. I should point out here, to avoid confusion, that in this case “magic” refers exclusively to stage magic and not such Magic (or Magick) as people like Aleister Crowley discuss. The book explains, mostly in very practical terms, the array or “tricks,” “gimmicks” or “swindles” (!) one can perform on stage in order to appear to be a mind reader in order to entertain an audience. Most of these pamphlets were originally written in the late 1950s or early 1960s, and as the author is British, there are some interesting (at times confusing) anachronisms or foreign terms to grapple with, for example when he speaks of any trick involving currency.
There are also many typos and writing errors of various kinds, although the editors have done a good job of making page references consistent to the book’s pagination, instead of for example referring you to “page 8 of step three.” Probably because of its history as a series of booklets, the front end of the book is heavily weighted toward practical advice, and the back is where most of the theory is covered. If you’re not interested in the history of stage magic, this book still has a few interesting sections, especially those in which he reveals how “phony mediums” put on their performances. It’s also interesting, from an ethical standpoint, how disapproving he is of “phony mediums” and others who use these techniques to rip people off instead of entertain them. It’s interesting in part, because the whole conceit of his act, and everyone else involved in this business, is to pretend that mind reading really is possible, and that these staged tricks demonstrate it, while throughout the book he is clearly telling you it isn’t, and how you can guess a card or number without being a real mind reader. The last two chapters are also interesting, in terms of the advice he gives on publicity and self-promotion, though of course he is dealing with a different level of communications technology than is normal today.
More broadly, what is interesting about this book is the ways it demonstrates how easily people can be fooled, how ready they are to be fooled, and how a smart individual can take advantage of that. The ethics of such knowledge, and how to use it, is largely left up to the individual reader. An absolutely fascinating book for everyone who wants to step inside the mentalism world. This is a must read!

This was the perfect book for me, and will be a valuable resource in the future. My one fair warning about this read is that not only does it pull back the curtain on mentalism acts and magic itself, it practically blows the entire stage that magic rests on apart. Basically, this book unearthed most of if not all secrets behind classic mentalism and magic. So if you enjoy the feelings of bewilderment while watching a magician perform and wish not to taint that wonderful feeling than do not read This was the perfect book for me, and will be a valuable resource in the future.
