INTRODUCTION
CLARKE’S THIRD LAW: “Any suffi ciently advanced
technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
NIVEN’S LAW: “Any suffi ciently advanced magic is
indistinguishable from technology.”
AGATHA HETERODYNE (“GIRL GENIUS ”) PARAPHRASE
OF NIVEN’S LAW: “Any suffi ciently analyzed magic is
indistinguishable from science!”
ave you ever wondered how magic effects work? Coins materi-
Halize out of thin air. Cards move through a deck as if pulled by
an invisible force. Beautiful women are cut in half. Spoons bend.
Fish, elephants, even the Statue of Liberty disappear before your
eyes. How does a mentalist actually read your mind? How can you
not see the gorilla in the room? Really, how can someone catch a bul-
let in his teeth? How do they do it?
Don’t bother to ask a conjurer. When joining an or ga ni za tion of
professional magicians, the initiate may be asked to take an oath: “As
2 SLEIGHTS OF MIND
a magician I promise never to reveal the secret of any illusion to a
nonmagician, unless that person also swears to uphold the magicians’
oath. I promise never to perform any illusion for any nonmagician
without fi rst practicing the effect until I can do it well enough to
maintain the illusion of magic.” It is a code. A brotherhood. The magi-
cian who breaks this code risks being blackballed by his fellow
magicians.
