The Truth About Uri Geller, formerly known as The Magic of Uri Geller, is a 1982 book by magician and skeptic James Randi about alleged psychic Uri Geller. In the book, Randi challenges Geller's assertions that he performs paranormal feats. Randi explores Geller's background as a stage magician, and explains how Geller's spoon bending can be easily reproduced by any magician using sleight of hand. In April 1992 Geller sued Prometheus Books for $4 million alleging libel in two other books. This suit was thrown out in 1994 and the judge ordered Geller to pay $20,272.89 in legal fees.
