From what I understand,if you legitimately purchased the book, that purchase does entitle you to build the illusions , contained within.

If you are using a different method but the presentation and "look" is the same as a "copyrighted" illusion, you could run into problems here. While the effect may not be protected, the presentation may be.
As an example, Gaughan has the patent for "Flying", but I believe when Copperfield went after a certain French performer, it was based on the presentation. So coming up with a different method may not save you in this regard. But a question, if you are good enough to come up with a different method to copy an established performers' illusion. Why don't you just come up with a new effect using one of your methods. Makes sense to be an original, doesn't it??? Trust me the rewards are greater!!! Blair Marshall "ShaZzam!"
