Inversion is a card plot created by Richard Kaufman and first published in his book CardMagic in 1979 under the title The World's Fastest Reverse. The basic effect is that the deck instantly reverses around the selected card, which does not turn over.

The effect was later improved by James Lewis and given the name Inversion by the addition of having the selected card outjogged at the moment of the reversal.
