Description: 13 Steps To Mentalism - 1968 - 1st Ed. Psychic Phenomena & Magic Book Thirteen Steps To MentalismBy CorindaPublished by Tannen Magic Inc: New York 1968 - First Edition Fourth Printing "Thirteen Steps to Mentalism is a book on mentalism by Tony Corinda. It was originally published as thirteen smaller booklets as a course in mentalism and was later republished as a book in 1961. The book is now considered by most magicians to be a classical text on mentalism. The book describes various techniques used by mentalists to achieve what appear to be psychic phenomena such as telepathy, precognition, extra-sensory perception, telekinesis and the ability to communicate with the dead as a medium. The book has detailed information regarding cold reading, hot reading, the construction and use of such devices as the swami gimmick, billets, and billet pens. Together with Annemann's Practical Mental Effects and T.A. Waters' Mind, Myth and Magick, it is considered standard literature for any magician, mentalist, or student of stage magic who wishes to incorporate psychic entertainment into their routine. Mentalists such as Derren Brown, Larry Becker, Lee Earle, Richard Osterlind and Banachek have relied upon Thirteen Steps To Mentalism for their own mental illusions."
