With deck switches, you can create extraordinary, incomprehensible effects - as long as the switch isn't detected or suspected.

A deck switch allows you to start with an ordinary deck, convince everyone it's you and not the cards causing the magic - then switch in your gaffed or stacked deck to unleash  stunning effects. 

Use it also as a clean up: start with a gaffed deck, and as soon as you have accomplished the impossible feat, you can say, "Check out those cards all you want!" With a deck switch, they can, because you just switched the gaffed deck for a normal one, which they can even take home!

Roberto Giobbi teaches you precisely how to do this: standing, seated, with and without a jacket-using shrewd psychology, not knuckle-busting sleights or special gimmicks or apparatus.

Dozens of methods for imperceptibly switching decks, along with the psychological principles behind them; principles that allow the reader to apply and modify deck switching techniques to suit any circumstance.

Along the way, Giobbi explains very strong card magic - routines not only to astonish your audience, but to begin practicing your new skills as well!

As is expected from Roberto Giobbi, the techniques and tricks in this book are not pipe dreams. They come from his professional repertoire, sharpened by hundreds of performances and explained with all the detail only a world-class teacher can bring to a subject.

There is no other book devoted to this important topic-and it holds information that will be of tremendous value to beginning and advanced card magicians alike. The Art of Switching Decks is an in-depth study teaching over 30 deck switches and a few remarkable tricks.
