When former discover editor Alex Stone turns his magic hobby into a full-time obsession, he finds himself plunging down a rabbit hole of illusion, crime, and science. Starting with an explanation of the mathematics of card shuffling, he is soon exploring the neuro-science that makes a blind man the best card cheat of all time. Stone also hammers home how little we notice the world around us by stealing the watch of an eminent psychologist during an interview.
