Has anyone used one recently or can review? Piers. PS. The website still appears confused re: pricing. www.justgiving.com/piers-cancer-fund www.justgiving.com/Piers-Cancer-Fund-2 www.justgiving.com/Piers-Cancer-Fund-3 Finished my 4 months of Chemotherapy in 2009. 3 monthly checks since... and into 2021!

I got it !
I like the principle very much. It's the best book test with the insight from keith Fields. You don't have to ask for a long/big word as in the Karmilovitch book test. This book test in my opinion is not for beginners because it works best for people who are good at interpreting body language when determining which word was picked within a particular word group.

But in the end, book test is just a lot like Card Forces....in the Audience mind will be the same...unless your presentations is unique and most imprtantly, Entertaining
so I guess there is nothing Special about this beside the very Cool method, which strikes lay people as nothing of fancy |

Doesn't seem as close to 100 pct as MOABT. Mother is like family. She is there when I need her, always. Curious about more reviews just as any of the Holy Grail seekers.
Raise your prices Ted.

Picto Mental is a colouring book with let´s say 100 different pictures and some words you can receive. With the grandmother you have a book with hundreds of pages and thousands of possible words the spectator can freely choose. Which of them will a spectator think is stronger? I think the "real" book, but this is just my opinion.

Doesn't Rick over at Outlaw have something similar?
Looking forward to the English translation reviews.

Okay, Okay. Parmenion, but is it 100 percent for the advanced mentalist? Or is it as close to 100 pct as can be depending on the the spectator etc? Even MOABT is not 100 percent but it is the best out there bar none.
CinChiller I was thinking more like the Homicide BT.

No, I think a beginner mentalist can do it
It's not self working you have to practice a lot for a beginner and a little bit for an advanced. The system is 100 % but the words you use are important ( so it's because I say it's better if you already do mentalism) Anyway for me it's a best principle I'e ever seen ( with insight ) But has everything it's matter of taste. For instance I don't like MOABT principles but I agree it's a good book. At least everything is question of perception and presentation( for a book test)

Candin,
the principle has nothing to do with Rick´s Homicide book test. I like the outlaw booktests very much, but they are completly different from the grandmother. The grandmother is a pure and direct booktest. If somebody would ask me how a "typical" real booktest should look like - I would answer like the Grandmother. But I think the mentalist should be advanced for a 100% clear and believable presentation. It´s definitly nothing for a beginner.

The real question is . . . . what will we call book tests when we run out of relatives.
