This is an interesting collection of tricks and puzzles (and some things to watch out for) so you can fool your friends or alternatively, be prepared in case someone tries them on you. Some rely upon interesting math tricks, while others are physics tricks.

The presentation of this book is interesting. It's available in e-book only and each trick/puzzle has an audio commentary by the author about the trick/puzzle (based upon the platform, it's either an embedded audio clip or an external link). Also, many of the tricks/puzzles (most of them) have video demonstrations showing how to perform them. Once again, they're either embedded or external links. The embedded audio/video clips really add to the overall presentation of the book. Also, if the author has performed this on his show ScamSchool.tv, there's a YouTube link to the episode in question so you can see it performed in a less controlled setting.

If you might be interested, check out the book sample and then maybe some of the ScamSchool.tv episodes and that will give you a feel for the kind of tricks.

Fantastic introduction to scams, tricks and cons to amuse and entertain. Also an incredible example of what the future of ebooks looks like. Can't recommend it highly enough.
