I recently picked up "The book of facts" by Chris Capehart. The effect is a routine I've seen before where you and the spectator cut, shuffle and trade cards, only to later predict how many face up, black, and red cards. The instructions are in my opinion incomplete. Any guidance?

Sounds similar to control in chaos in mnemonica

Actually, it sounds like one of the many variants of Simon Aronson's Shufflebored effect. Full details on the effect and ~10 presentational possibilities can be found in the Book "Bound to Please." This book also contains a wealth of additional material. Well worth getting.

At the end, you predict the number of face up cards, how many are black, how many are red, and one that is a diamond. If that helps....

Like Steven said THAT IS shufflebored. The effect you read must be derivative of it. The book Steven mentions is a whole book on this effect - the most complete writeup you will ever find on this effect...
