Learn Ben Seidman's Best Routine Today

Ben Seidman is a verified mind-blower. His magic can confuse, delight, and disturb. We're happy to say that The Principles of Destruction does all three.

In his first-ever book, Seidman breaks down his most impactful card routine. 

A spectator selects a card and loses it in the deck. With the deck feet away in a cup, the chosen card rises by itself. 

And that's only the beginning. 

After that, you bring them their card in a small packet. Miraculously, it vanishes and reappears under your spectator's seat! 

If that doesn't amaze you, there's still more. 

Finally, tear a corner from their card and hand it to the spectator. Then you vanish the rest of the card into thin air. Ask a different audience member to check their pocket. The chosen card is there, with a matching corner tear. 

In The Principles of Destruction, Seidman walks you step by impossible step through this masterpiece of parlor and stage magic. You'll gain the techniques to perfect this performance and the skills to apply these principles to your own work. 

The Principles of Destruction is available at any Murphy's Magic dealer, or you can check out with our featured dealer, Magic & Cards!
