Tricks of the Mind
Tricks of the Mind

Mind-bending secrets from a master illusionist.

If you've ever been astounded by Derren Brown's performances or simply love the mysterious world of magic and mentalism, "Tricks of the Mind" might just be your new favorite read. Brown invites you into his mind, sharing the psychology behind illusions, memory tricks, and the art of reading people. It's more than a book; it's a peek behind the curtain of a brilliant performer, which might just leave you looking at the world in a new, more questioning way.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Derren Brown's television and stage performances have entranced and dumbfounded millions. His baffling illusions and stunning set pieces - such as The Seance, Russian Roulette and The Heist - have set new standards of what's possible, as well as causing more than their fair share of controversy. Now, for the first time, he reveals the secrets behind his craft, what makes him tick and just why he grew that beard. Tricks of the Mind takes you on a journey into the structure and psychology of magic. Derren teaches you how to read clues in people's behaviour and spot liars. He discusses the whys and wherefores of hypnosis and shows you how to do it. And he investigates the powers of suggestion and how you can massively improve the power of your memory. He also takes a long hard look at the paranormal industry, and looks at why some of us feel the need to believe in it in the first place... Alternately hilarious, controversial and challenging, Tricks of the Mind is essential reading for Derren's legions of fans, and pretty bloody irresistible even if you don't like him that much...
