Summary: Horrible, I knew more before I read this book
Review: I have this book and it is weak as hell. It doesn't give you anything common sense can't figure out for you. It doesn't explain anything in great detail enough to help you out at all. Don't waste your money. Try trial & error. - Shabam the moderately sober fat mack

Summary: Horrible, I knew more before I read this book
Review: I knew more before I read this [bad]book, this book is so bad it decreased my knowledge. This book gives theories on pickpocketing, at the end the author actually says he didn't include any step by step or detail instructions to pickpocketing because each pickpocket must go his own way (why read this then?), also pickpocketing is illegal and shouldn't be used illegally (the 2 reasons he didnt include any information on pickpocketing in his pickpocket book) All he says is you must get in his pocket but not let him feel you!! Drrr!! Thanks!! Anyway, I suggest the book Techniques of the Professional Pickpocket by Wayne B. Yeager. I have seen this on [website] many times before. That book is great.

Summary: Vague and nearly useless.
Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY. This 62-page booklet is not worth whatever price you find it for. It mentions all the things that make a great pick pocket, but doesn't tell you how to achieve those things. In fact it even refuses to teach you things outright!It actually mentions them, then tells you it will not be covered! Things that should logically be covered in depth are skimmed and ignored completely.
Quote: " I have purposely not referred to the manner in which your hand should operate in the pocket, nor have I provided specific magic tricks to use in conjunction with pickpocketing. I have not given you specific instructions on removing many items such as belts, cufflinks, bracelets, necklaces, etc. which can be removed without detection..."
So what is the point of producing an instructional text if it doesn't teach you anything? When it wasn't being vague it was telling you painfully obvious things about pick pocketing that it seems everyone would likely know.
Don't waste your cash or time with this one.
