The effects are mostly cards and coins. There are two out-and-out mental effects and two or three of the card effects can be presented as very strong mental effects.
When "
Psychic Pulse" was shown and explained to several magicians while on the way home from a magic convention, they said that it alone was worth the price of the book.
It is firmly believed that applications of
"Slough-off Control," combined with
"Slough-off Mathematics" can revolutionize one facet of card magic. If these two concepts are combined with John Quine's handling of his
"Quine's Keeper," even more miracles are possible.
