Comments: As a general caution, Scriptures warn against
attempts at contacting spirits, so please avoid any of the
exercises in these books that may recommend you do so.
The majority of the effects in these books, however, deal with
psychology, the power of suggestion, as well as standard and new
magic mentalism tricks.
