Fooling Houdini: Magicians, Mentalists, Math Geeks, and the Hidden Powers of the Mind

First of all, there is a section in the back with magic terminology.
I never really thought about magic and magicians except in casual passing but this book is about how psychology and math factor into the craft of magic. While he does reveal some tricks, I don't feel any magic was ruined for me. In fact, I am more interested in magic because of this book. There is a chapter that describes in detail how to steal someone's watch!
