We've had PC's for Dummies, MAC's for Dummies, Photography for Dummies but now MAGIC for Dummies....... please, really!!

Omfg, is there anything they won't pubish a guite to? Overall the book looks like a standard magic everyone can do with everyday items but in the dummies format. Does that sort of magic really need a dummies guide, I mean it's not exactly techincally vexing?

I've read a couple of reviews on it and they agree on the fact that it is a good book for beginners...+ reviews on amazon are good.

I'm pretty sure it would'nt be to my tatse though...

I'm still waiting for Mandrakes next book - which he claims will be called "Magic for Brummies"

Jordan, I think this book has been out for years, unless I am mistaken...I think I saw it in the USA about 15 yrs ago but I may be thinking of another similar book!

Or is this version a reprint.....I was just as surprised then, when I saw it.

I think I've mentioned this before, this book along with other more substantial magic books are freely available in local book stores/shops on the high streets of most major USA towns and cities.....that was what surprised me the most!
