Freeman Dyson on Randi & Geller

Discussions of new films, books, television shows, and media indirectly related to magic and magicians. For example, there may be a book on mnemonics or theatrical technique we should know or at least know about.

Freeman Dyson on Randi & Geller

Postby Richard Lane » March 14th, 2004, 2:28 pm

In the current New York Review of Books, Freeman Dyson reviews "Debunked! ESP, Telekinesis, Other Pseudoscience" by Georges Charpak and Henri Broch, Professor of Physics and magicican.

Broch's telephone effect is tipped in the piece.

Includes a Dyson anecdote about James Randi recreating Uri Geller's PK demonstration, minutes after Geller had left the stage.
