The book provides a timeline when magic was used: from the first recorded magic act in 2700BC in Egypt to the first published book in 1584, then to Harry Houdini in 1874 to The Magic Circle formed in 1905, and all the way to the present, beyond Dynamo in 2011. The book also discusses Magic Theory examples such as Anthropological Theoretics and Psychological Theoretics.

The book delves into the history of magicians as well as their famous acts, separating them into two categories:

The Firsts:
1) Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin
2) John Henry Anderson
3) John Nevil Maskelyne
4) Harry Houdini.

Modern Magicians:
1) David Copperfield
2) James Randi
3) David Blaine
4) Criss Angel
5) Derren Brown
6) Penn & Teller
7) Dynamo

The book is extremely informative, looking into magic and illusion.
