Chan Canasta's Book of Oopses (for resale)Chan CanastaThis book could fetch hundreds of dollars on ebay. It was very hard to find a copy. The book was shrouded in mystery. The few that had a copy didn't tell what it was. Many who didn't have one, wanted it badly. Now the wait is over... Martin Breese reprinted this one of a kind book. And the one of a kind Martin Breese let me reproduce it as ebook. Given the recent popularity of psychological methods in mentalism, the Book of Oopses was decades ahead of its time. Most effects use psychological quirks and biases to predict your entirely 'free' choice. It is eerily disturbing how easily we... | softcover | |
