(Based on 2 reviews)
Full diagrams and explanations for three effects which have become popular features in the programs of professional magicians: Modern Art, the amazing new “cutting in half” illusion, Shadow Theatre, a lady who seems to become a two-dimensional shadow, and Hospitality, an new approach to the classic effect, in which six different drinks are poured from an unprepared paper milk carton. A spiral bound book with fold-out diagrams, full dimensions and notes on presentation. 8 1/2 by 11 inches.

It is probably the best book on illusions plains i have. Despite the fact that Shadow Theatre is difficult to construct, it is one of the most beautiful illusions i´ve ever seen. Try to see Luis de Matos performing it. Modern Art itself is very deceptive and easy to build. In my point of view Hospitality is very hard to do and the illusion is not as atonishing as its big brothers.

Also you probably will never build these illusions, but let me say this: You will learn more about the art of deception reading "Einstein" meyer than reading any other illusion builders includig Paul Osborne.

A must have book.

It's by Jim Steinmeyer... need I say more!
It a beautifully produced book and the plans for each illusion are clear and precise.
This is how all illusion books should be.
As for the illusions they are mind blowing but then again what else would expect from the mind of Jim Steinmeyer.
What are you waiting for go get a copy!
