This makes reading more comfortable and finding your favorite effects easier. But don't be fooled... you'll want to have them all!
This trilogy contains a wealth of inspiring ideas: from direct effects to sophisticated talks, from useful manipulations to ingeniously designed structures. As Theo Annemann pointed out, Gardner has a "predilection for the most exquisite subtleties."
