lilTll|)DUoTI|)s Firstof oll,thonk you for buyingthisbook. I do oppreciote it, ond hope you willfind it of volue ond interest. Let me stote my objective in writingthisbook. I ottempt to creote "mentoleffects",thot ore os closeto possibleos"the reolthing". My emphosisis on method. I wos once introduced by one of the world'stop professionols to o friend,-osq 'creotor of cerebrol mentolism'.At first,I wosn'tsurewhot to moke of the introduction,but os I thought of it more ond more, it struckme os on extremelyoccurote stotement. I om much more of o creotor, thon performer.You will find performonce hintsond outlinesin my work, but they ore mere guidepostsolong the woy, My hope isthot the performersomong you moy find moieriol ond ideos oround which you moy design presentotionsthot fit your style of working ond moy give you greoter flexibility. To the other creotorsof Mentolism,I hope thot you moy find o nice bit of loterolthinkingthot mokesyou smile.lf you find o new or simpler"woyto skino cot", thot moy help solvesomethingon which you've been working, or inspireyou on to somethingnew, I will be pleosed. I likemy methods to be os simpleos is possible.ln foct, the bold, simple method is usuollymore deceptive then the supersubtle,yet overlycomplicoted method, Whilemuch of my moteriol isof the 100%surecotegory, some of my fovorite creotionsinvolvehoving to toke some chonces, ond be oble to "go with the flow". Whilesome of you moy not likethis opprooch, it ismy beliefthot techniquesthot involvechonce toking ore the ones thot will leod us into the future os performersof mysteries, Thisbook wos not meont for Mogicionslookingfor o "mentol mogic trick" to odd to their show. I ossumethot ony reoder of this book is ocquointed with the bosicsof our ort. The itemsin thisbook requirethe unique temperoment of on experienced Mentolist. To cloim credit for the originoliiyof everythingin this book would, obviously,be impossible.EveryMentolistowesthonksto oll of the creotors

lDni-llieks thot hove come before us. lt'so smoll field,with few techniquesto sustoin us.SinceI om not the scholorlytype, ond influencessometimesbecome jumbled ofter mony yeors,I've credited itemswhenever possible, untilmemory or the help of friendsfoiled me. lf l've inodvertentlyfoiled in somewoy, I opologize.I'm surethot ony shoricomingswillbe pointed out. I hope you enjoy this book, ond find it both usefulond interesting,
