A book on mentalism by Angelo Stagnaro.
This book deals with the topic of "cold reading" which is the art and science of clandestinely gathering information from a spectator enabling the performer to reveal unknown details of their life. The text explores body language, intuition, equivocation, muscle reading, personal charm, cultural anthropology, demographics, psychological forces, self-working mentalism, causal observation and common sense.
For serious students of Mentalism and Magic only.
"Through careful study and application of the principles in this book, it will be possible for the reader to soon present sensational performances in front of an audience without using any props!" - Ted Lesley
