Magic Tricks

First off, let me state unequivocally that I hate learning magic/sleight of hand from books. Every book on sleight of hand I have ever owned, sits a drawer gathering dust. That being said, this book is by far the easiest print source to learn from that is currently published. Roberto Giobbi's thought and attention to detail do not go unnoticed. His description of everything, combined with clear accurate diagrams and pictures, makes learning the switches quite easy. As for the comments about the book only including two switches that can be done seated, technically this may be true. However that's only if you take each switch as bible and don't vary it. You can change the switches up, once you know how the basics work. If you already have a good understanding of misdirection and timing, then this should be quite easy. If not, just practicing these will give you those tools. This really is a must for any working magician. Only one nitpick is the DVD that comes with it, but that was just thrown in there. All in all, it is a must buy and a must own.
