Law & Criminology

'The Sharper Detected and Exposed' is a treatise by Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin, first published in 1863, focusing on sleight-of-hand and the detection of gambling cheats. Drawing from his experiences as a magician and expert in deception, Robert-Houdin educates readers about the tricks employed by fraudsters known as 'Greeks' to exploit unsuspecting gamblers. The book serves as both a guide to understanding these deceptive practices and a call to protect the public from such con artists, highlighting the author's commitment to illuminating the complexities of gambling fraud.
