Hello David !! i loveeed this video !!! just fantastic !! i was wondering if you could do a video about the carreer of Scott Alexander, or even a review of his book "52" or maybe a mix of a tribute to his career and review of his book or dvd series standing up on stage

[@DavidDellman]

I did a tribute to Scott here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmWTYmSfmJpkgdEsi=OQ0sN33UMHFWbr66 ... Sadly I don't own 52

If these books are for more advanced magicians what book do you recommend for new students of close up magic?

[@DavidDellman]

The great books on magic all contain sections on close-up magic, Tarbell, Mark Wilson's Course. The Amateur Magicians Handbook, Magic: The Complete Course: How to Perform Over 100 Amazing Effects by Joshua Jay, but if you want to study card magic in particular, I recommend Easy to Master Card Miracles by Michael Ammar. This is a multi-volume set that provides the best card magic and the finest instruction I have ever seen.
