Tricks

In the Second Book of Moses: Exodus, Chapter 3, No. 10, God asked Moses to remove the children of Israel from Egypt. Moses, however, realized that God's request was a difficult trick to perform because it would require parting the Red Sea. After thinking hard for several days, Moses performed his most famous trick . . . he actually divided the Red Sea in half. The Bible argues that everything was created in just seven days; but the Big Bang people introduced a trickiest argument: that everything was created in a matter of seconds! The 'dress for success' phenomenon is a trick closed to our brain: one could have an empty brain and still get the job if one happens to dress 'neatly' and as 'expected' for the particular job. This book shows that tricking is a learned behavior one can use to escape or avoid difficult situations, and also to get what one wants. Tricks also provides an exercise to assess people's ability to trick. Tricks was written to give the reader's mind a break from stressful situations and bad news.
