The book contains 111 pages of cranial enjoyment. Along with a dozen polished presentation of mental might are essays about the presentation of close up mentalism. It contains effects using cards, dates on coins, choices, emotions, predictions, surprises, fate, and stones. I feel that a solid presentation of mentalism is made much stronger when the audience is drawn into the parlor of premise, reason, and emotion rather than the simplistic, “Let me show you this” or “Do you believe in ESP?”
