A year ago, Michael Rubinstein asked about voice recognition software which he could use to put a "dvd coin trick to paper." It seems Michael resolved any issues he had and has produced a book:

Because most of his work has only appeared on video, I was worried that his great routines and comprehensive "Encyclopedia of Coin Sleights" would in the future disappear into the ether. Secondly, I'm glad he is releasing his book in hardcopy form, and not as an e-book, for pretty much the same reason. Hardcopy books can last a thousand years, but we don't know how long videos and other electronic forms will last into the future, what with continually changing hardware and software. Sounds like the book could become a new sine qua non of coin magic. Hey, Doc, any title for this book yet? |

That sound pretty promising to me. I'm eager to hear more.

Sounds great! I learned a lot from his "Encyclopedia of Coin Sleights" but a collection of his work in book form, that sounds fantastic.

I'm really excited for this too. I can't see how this is going to be any less than essential.

This will be a treat! I can still see Michael in my mind's eye doing his Touch Spellbound at the first NY Magic Symposium in '82. Repeat. Flawless. Repeat. Real magic! Intelligence + creativity + dedicated practice = Legend!
Like Bonnie Raitt said, "I miss Little Feat more than I miss being 8 years old." Thanks for the concerts + recordings, Lowell, Richie, and Paul!

Just saw this, thanks for the mention. Rubinstein Coin Magic will be the biggest book on coin magic since Bobo, and the most important since David Roth's Expert Coin Magic. It will be ready the first week of May, and distributed by Murphys. Rubinstein Coin Magic not only contains my best material, including a ton of stuff I have held back for years, but 22 contributions from some of the top coin guys in the world,, showcasing some great magic with state of the art techniques.
By the way Ray, I never used that software, and took a year working full time to write the book!

Any Idea on the price yet Michael? Also, will you be selling directly? or will this be a Murphy's Release (or any other magic book publisher)?

It will be released by Murphy's and will retail for I believe $85. The book should go on sale around the middle of May.

Hi Wilso, I have had many requests already for overseas shipment. Once I get the actual book and pack it up, I need to find out overseas shipping costs to each country. I am told it is expensive, but I will likely just average the costs for each country and make an overseas shipping price to add to the book. Book should be reasy to ship the middle of May.

Will at least some of the material be suited for beginners? I'm hoping with the description and size of the book that this will be a great resource for building my knowledge and skills from essentially the ground up. |

Michael,
Any chance of posting the table of contents? Would love to see what you've included in this. |
|||||||||
Michael Rubinstein V.I.P. 4665 Posts |
As you might expect, a 500 page book has a rather large table of contents. It is 9 pages long, covering 20 chapters. Part One has over 50 moves and techniques. Part two has 89 of my own routines, with original presentations, unpublished stuff and updated handlings. The last chapter contains 22 contributions from coin guys from all over the world, and something in the tradition of Frank Garcia. Part three is well, a bonus section with 3 more items plus....
Yes, there is stuff for everyone,for anyone who knows the basic moves to advanced.
