I received yesterday Andrew Mayne new book – “Illusiontech”.
From going over this book I think it’s a grate book for those who are looking to build their illusions without spending too much money and getting some grate idea for old illusions in a new concept. http://www.andrewmayne.com/ Andrew keeps publishing these kinds of books. Eran

Is this the same guy who does the "Ghost Bills" trick through Ellusionist? I think it is him...and without searching through all my magic DVDs it sounds like he's the one. He did another illusion recently, something with food...right? He has good tricks, I've not yet learned his money ghost trick yet. Parts of the DVD are hard to see at certain angles.

Compared to Eric Van Duzer's "The Seven Basic Secrets of Illusion Design" and Fitzkee's "TRICK BRAIN", which is better? Which one is more informative and comprehensive?

I liked The Seven Basic Secrets of Illusion Design, but I could not get into Trick Brain.

I recieved mine yesterday. Great book. Mr. Mayne makes lots of excellant points in the psychology of magic and illusion. He not only tells how but more importantly the why. Highly recommanded. Just my 2% of $1.00.
