Effect :
An unbelievable feat of mind reading using
a book and a pack of playing cards!
A spectator freely chooses two playing
cards, for example a 3 and an 8. A book
is picked up and turned to the page chosen
by the cards (using our example this would
be 3 & 8 - page 38).
The spectator is asked to concentrate and
place their finger on the first word of
this page. The performer instantly tells
them the word under their finger, despite
not seeing the selected cards, or touching
the book at any time during the performance!
Description :
Very easy to perform - no sleights required
The choice of cards is completely free (no
forcing)
Any book with 100 pages or more can be used
Can be instantly repeated

Literally two books in one! On one side of
this 180-page hardcover is a reprint of H.J.
Burlingame's 1907 paperback release "How
to Read People's Minds" which includes
some history on muscle reading and how it
works, along with a fascinating section on
training your dog to read minds!
Give the book a flip over and you have
Banachek's "Psychophysiological Thought
Reading"! This section not only covers
more details on the history of muscle reading,
but also teaches updated effects using muscle
reading as it is performed today by performers
including Derren Brown, and Banachek himself.
These effects are used onstage and close-up
in routined and impromptu performances.
Description :
Laminated hardcover, 180 6" x 9"
pages with new illustrations by Earle Oakes
"Psychophysiological Thought Reading
is a must-have for anyone interested in
learning contact-mind reading, and when
combined with Burlingame, also a must-have
for anyone interested in mentalism history.
It is the most complete treatment of ideomotor
effects I have seen written for mentalists."
