I had met Arthur Benjamin at the university I was attending because he was close friends with my professor. Prior to meeting him, I have seen him on YouTube and was completely impressed with his work.<br><br>When he visited my college classroom, I was able to watch him do all of those same tricks live! As a fellow magician/showman myself, I was inspired to learn a few of the tricks as well, so here I am! I absolutely love this book because of the writing style that continues to encourage the reader to learn. They make it sound so easy, and the morale provided will make the journey towards mastery might make it so.<br><br>I highly recommend this book to any math nerd, hobbyist, performer, magician, or showman.<br><br>As for Professor Arthur Benjamin, hope to see you again! I regret not speaking to you more during your visit.
