Rating:  Summary: Look like a professional con artist. Review: Harry Anderson is one of my favorite magicians. His style and presentation are outstanding. It's a shame that this is the only book he's written. This book starts out showing you some fabulous cons you can pull on people. The first 92 pages teach you exactly what the book says. Unfortunately, the last 70 pages are about "Games you can't win" and tell you all about casinos and carny scams. It's a shame that the book starts out so good, then fizzles like it does. It's still worth the money and will make you look quite sly around your friends.
Rating:  Summary: Don't loan this one out! Review: If you find a copy of this book, BUY IT! If you own a copy of this book, don't loan it out. It will not return to you. (If you borrowed this book from me, I want it back.) This book is fun, enlightening and educational.
Rating:  Summary: Buy this Book! Review: When I was in high school I bought this book at Disneyland, and read it from cover to cover on the plane-ride back. It's absolutely the funniest, most memorable book I've ever read, and even now, 7 years later I still share anecdotes with my friends, such as "How to take your vest off without taking of your jacket", "Fooling the 3-card Monty", and various other tricks and stories.I too have lent this book out to my "friends" and have never had it returned to me. It's really a shame the book is out of print, because I really wanted to buy it all over again.
