Right, so you were lying when you said you couldn't learn from books?

Again.

So there is no point you pretending to write this pdf or pretending there is a publisher for it (that was FUCKING funny man)?

Yes. Go to any magic forum and ask if it is good to learn magic from books.

I learned from books. Lots and lots of books. If you're interested, start with Royal Road or Card College, then progress to Erdnase, Harry Lorayne and finally Dai Vernon.

Practice is something you do AFTER you have learnt from the book.

It's a multistage process.

Seriously, have you never learned ANYTHING from a book? Ever?
