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.
The James Bond Cold Reading is a whole new take on the twelve lines of the 'Classic Reading' made so popular from the 50's to the present day. Julian 'Bev' Moore shows you how this much discussed but seldom used powerful cold reading technique can be applied effectively and memorised in no time at all using characters such as James Bond that you already know and love. Forget about learning stock lines and never using them - using the proven techniques in The James Bond Cold Reading, you can learn to speak in you own words and amaze people by how much you know about them using one of the most misunderstood tools of mentalism - the character reading. By bringing a modern slant to an old technique, Julian 'Bev' Moore proves once again that that the old ones are the best - if only we knew how to apply them. If you're not a fan of 'stock lines' and think that learning them is a waste of time, this ebook could seriously change your mind! REVIEWS "I got Julian's book and it is wonderful! It is a great system for doing a reading and extremely practical. I applaud Julian and highly recommend this!" - Richard Osterlind "First palmistry, now general Forer-Barnum 101... this guy really amazes me." - Craig Browning "Julian has taken the Classic Reading - which isn't out of date, as some would suggest - and applied a James Bond theme to its LEARNING (not to the reading itself), to make the reading's customization so much easier. It's ingenious, simple, and thought-inspiring, all at the same time! Buy this now, and start using it right away!" - R. Lee Davis "I have tried many times to learn the stock lines of cold reading. I've tried memory techniques, linking, the peg system, and even with all that everything seemed a confusing, repetitive mess. Because of Julian's system, in two days, I have learned to give a cold reading forward, backward, inside out and in my own words. Just as with Julian's palmistry book saved me about five years of study, this book is just as good and also very interesting. If you're interested in cold reading at all this will be the best money you'll ever spend. As a side note his system could be applied to anything else you might want to memorize and make your own. I have never heard of his techniques before and I have studied a lot of memory techniques. It's so easy I will add this to my 'readings' repertoire." - Scott Martisse "So I'm finally watching the new Casino Royale and lines from the James Bond Reading keep popping unbidden into my head. What makes this interesting is I hadn't really intended on learning the reading via James Bond but via a character I know more about. I followed Julian's suggestions to practice readings aloud, even to inanimate objects. After a bit of this, I tried the real deal. This isn't something you can do mechanically, at least if you want to get maximum effect and responses. It is a matter of a give and take that is "entrancing" in its impact. I can't wait to see what more experience will bring. Thank you Julian, you really have made a significant contribution. Your ability to simplify and teach is exceptional. I generally rely on my knowledge as a psychologist to add a bit of reading but it wasn’t anywhere as powerful as applying this system. Folks, don't just read JBR. Get out there and use it." - Dr Bill Cushman OTHER KINDLE BOOKS IN THE SPEED LEARNING SERIES BY JULIAN MOORE Speed Learning: Graphology - The Art Of Handwriting Analysis Speed Learning: Cartomancy - A Playing Card Reading Primer Speed Learning: Palmistry - Palm Readings In Your Own Words Speed Learning: Numerology - Numbers Past And Present With The Lo-Shu Square Speed Learning: Star Signs
. Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.
The psychology classic—a detailed study of scientific theories of human nature and the possible ways in which human behavior can be predicted and controlled—from one of the most influential behaviorists of the twentieth century and the author of Walden Two. “This is an important book, exceptionally well written, and logically consistent with the basic premise of the unitary nature of science. Many students of society and culture would take violent issue with most of the things that Skinner has to say, but even those who disagree most will find this a stimulating book.” —Samuel M. Strong, The American Journal of Sociology “This is a remarkable book—remarkable in that it presents a strong, consistent, and all but exhaustive case for a natural science of human behavior…It ought to be…valuable for those whose preferences lie with, as well as those whose preferences stand against, a behavioristic approach to human activity.” —Harry Prosch, Ethics
