An Essay on Magic by Robert E. Neale

An Essay on Magic stands as Book 3 in this highly acclaimed Trilogy of Magic, offering a profound exploration of magic’s essence and its profound impact on human experience.
In this seminal work, Bob Neale presents his influential general theory of magic, illustrating how stage magic emerges from universal human needs and desires. His insights empower magicians to craft performances that are not only captivating but also deeply meaningful and enduring.
Featured within An Essay on Magic are 38 innovative magic routines, all published for the first time, each accompanied by a fully developed presentation. Additionally, readers are treated to Very Small Worlds, a bonus manuscript introducing two powerful new principles for performing astonishing card magic.

Praise for the Trilogy of Magic
Michael Weber: “Robert Neale has done something important for the art of magic. [In The Magic of Celebrating Illusion] he has given us a book full of ways and means by which we can see past our self-imposed illusions in order to more clearly see the real magic which exists in the world…. Long live Robert Neale.”
Barrie Richardson: “Bob Neale is a wonder…. His ideas are arresting. His insights stretch your mind and make you shake your head with awe, wonder, and respect. And his magic routines are what Mozart would applaud with glee.”
Genii Magazine: “The Sense of Wonder is packed with material. Theorists and those with a love for the mathematical and topological will be thoughtfully engaged.”
MAGIC Magazine: “Robert Neale is a unique thinker, and The Magic of Celebrating Illusion is essential reading for [any magician] who enjoys a challenge, rather than being spoon-fed the latest one-trick DVD.”
Max Maven: “Bob Neale has a rare ability to create magic with an intellectual whimsy. The result is simultaneously provocative, profound, and just plain fun. I am a fan….”
Jeff McBride: “Bob Neale is my hero…. It astonishes me how he can transform even some of the darkest situations of the human condition into light, humor, and inspiration.”
Eugene Burger: “Reading Bob Neale’s work is always an adventure. He tugs and pushes us beyond what we think we know and suddenly rearranges things in a completely unexpected way….”
