Tricks Of The Mind by Derren Brown
A lively blend of memoir, how-to guide and popular psychology that explores how perception, memory and suggestion shape what we think we know; the author describes tricks used in stage magic and mentalism—hypnosis, misdirection, cold reading, memory systems and linguistic persuasion—then explains the underlying psychology, offers practical exercises to improve memory and observational skills, and urges skepticism about seemingly extraordinary claims while discussing ethical limits of influence.
