An apt title for this book since the effects are simple (in terms of minimal slights) yet artfully
choreographed raising them to the level of theater. The emphasis here is on the presentation which
transform "tricks" into a sense of wonder, surprise and mystery. Mr. Krondeck's concise theoretical
introduction captures succinctly the essence of the magical experience; he then proceeds to put his
premise into practice with 9 lovely magical performances.
