Book Description
The world''s foremost mentalist demonstrates how to condition mind and body in order to accomplish many of the extraordinary mental feats that Kreskin accomplishes."The Amazing Kreskin" is a scientist of the mind, relying on natural and scientific means to perform effects that have baffled millions around the world. "Natural laws govern the working of the mind," he says. "Those who do not understand the laws usually label mental phenomena as supernatural or extrasensory. In fact, few of us have tapped more than a fraction of our mental potential." In this book, he reveals how readers can use their latent mental abilities to enhance the ordinary senses to accomplish effects that resemble telepathy and clairvoyance. Kreskin insists that there is nothing supernatural about any of these effects, and he redefines ESP as "extremely sensitive perception" to remove all connotation of the "other world" from this completely natural ability.Kreskin explains how to heighten awareness, increase powers of concentration, discover unknown strengths, tap the power of the unconscious, employ the power of illusion, utilize the power of suggestion, control attitudes and behavior, use silent communication, and predict with educated guesses. He also offers tips on how to hear whispers in a crowded room; "predict" news stories weeks in advance; "read thoughts" in the minds of complete strangers; influence others'' attitudes and actions; produce "hypnotic" effects without "hypnosis"; become a human lie detector; and locate lost objects. Readers will be amazed and amused by what Kreskin can teach them about their own potential.

With a showman's flair, a comedian's wit, and the capacities of a bona fide Mentalist or thought reader, The Amazing Kreskin has, for six decades, dramatized the unique facets of the human mind; his own. His very name has become an integral part of pop culture throughout the world. During the past fifty years, Kreskin has had a television series, his own board game by Milton Bradley, twenty published books, and a major motion picture inspired by his work. This book is a combination pictorial memoir, and a comic book with highlights from his illustrious career. From Mike Douglas to Johnny Carson to Jimmy Fallon, Kreskin is a favorite of talk show hosts who have never figured out "how he does it." There is a good reason why the name Kreskin is part of the pop culture lexicon. He calls himself a "mentalist" nothing more, nothing less. He says mental concentration and the power of suggestion are all he needs and believes everyone can develop the power of the mind.
