''The Mask of Nostradamus: The Prophecies of the World's Most Famous Seer'' is a 1990 book by magician and skeptic James Randi, published in paperback in 1993. Randi's biography looks past the "mask" of Nostradamus with a critical look at some of his alleged prophecies. == Reception ==
''New Scientist'' wrote the book was a good biography exploring how people rewrite Nostradamus's predictions to give the illusion of fulfilled predictions. ''The Skeptic's Dictionary'' cites Randi as debunking Nostradamus' claimed predictions of Adolf Hitler. John Koontz wrote about the book that "Randi can provide a much more parsimonious explanation than any given by true believers in prophecy". John Blanton explains that in the book Randi described prophecy's believers willingness to bend the meanings of words in favor of their claims about Nostradamus.
