Über den Autor
HARRY HOUDINI (born Erik Weisz, 1874-1926) was a Hungarian-born American escapologist, magician, stuntman, actor and film producer, and one of the most iconic figures of the twentieth century. Towards the end of his career he focused his energies on debunking spiritualists and mediums, and on the ethics of magic and illusion.TELLER (Introduction) is one half of magic and comedy duo Penn & Teller. He is the author of When I'm Dead All This Will Be Yours: Joe Teller-A Portrait By His Kid and, with Penn Jillette, of How to Play in Traffic, How to Play with Your Food and Penn & Teller's Cruel Tricks for Dear Friends. TV credits include the series Penn & Teller: Bullshit!, in which, like Houdini, the duo set out to debunk common beliefs.
