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.
