For those reading the new book, I wanted to point out this video of Darren Brown, which is a master at these techniques, and referenced to pgs. 133-4, where he almost instantaneously converts a woman that’s not only a scientist but an atheist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLzT4CeBT6I

Yes this Brown has a strange “knack” and has made money from it too…
True enough, I was just pointing out the techniques…disturbing.
Very disturbing. Assuming that this episode (and others like it) does not involve any cheating by previous agreement with the interviewee, there have been a lot of well-known psychological techniques out there for a long time. Looking at the other aspects of Brown’s work, it seems likely that he does not have a simply materialistic and mechanistic understanding of psychology, but rather consciously uses a sort of “projection of the will” (great for a stage magician) perhaps combined with a bit of telepathy and a bit of pre-cognisance to reduce the number of failed “experiments”.
Brown’s work is scary and amazing. I’ve learned a lot by watching his videos…
