Praise for Bob Neale
Martin Gardner: Bob Neale is a wonder. How Neale manages to think of such things is a mystery hard to fathom.
Eugene Burger: Bob Neale has created so many presentations that point us to life-our real lives with all their joy and sorrow, their confusion and clarity, their doubt and faith. Bob's work is extraordinary.
Barrie Richardson: Bob Neale's brain is wired unlike anyone else I know. His insights make you shake your head with awe, wonder, and respect.
Jeff McBride: Bob Neale is my hero. He takes on challenging topics like death, racism, religion, and other taboos. It astonishes me how he can transform some of the darkest situations of the human condition into light, humor, and optimism.
Max Maven (about Magic Matters) : If this book doesn't tickle you, you're not feeling. If this book doesn't annoy you, you're not thinking. If this book doesn't inspire you, you're not breathing.
Michael Weber (about The Magic of Celebrating Illusion) : Robert Neale has done something important for the art of magic. He has given us a book full of ways and means by which we can see past our self-imposed illusions to more clearly see the real magic [that] exists in the world. Long Live Robert Neale!
