Cold reading can be loosely defined as ‘how to talk to people so you sound psychic’. This is the definitive guide to how cold reading is used in the psychic industry. It systematically describes a wide range of techniques that enable those who give readings to make seemingly accurate statements to a complete stranger. These statements can refer to past, current or future events or to the client’s personality, feelings and potential.This is primarily a descriptive book, not an instructional one. It’s primary aim is to describe cold reading techniques rather than to teach anyone how to use them or how to give readings.
