The book is actually a collection of several booklets Mr. Burger wrote in the 80's that I don't
believe are available any longer. Some sections of of Eugene's magic from his own repertoire.
Others are about theory and philosophy of magic discussed in a very unique way, looking for meaning
deeper than what misdirection is and how to be natural, though both of those are also discussed.
And lastly, after the very mystical and philosophical thinking, there is lots of very practical and
usable advice like why you should have a script (instead of "patter") and how to behave doing
restaurant magic.
Eugene is possible the well rounded thinker, writer, and performer of
magic. He is the absolute epitome of Tenki's famous quote, "Magic is not tricks. It is a way."
