CHRISTOPHER CHABRIS and DANIEL SIMONS are cognitive psychologists who have each received accolades for their research on a wide range of topics. Their “Gorillas in Our Midst” study reveals the dark side of our ability to pay attention and has quickly become one of the best-known experiments in all of psychology; it inspired a stage play and was even discussed by characters on C.S.I. Chabris, who received his Ph.D. from Harvard, is a psychology professor at Union College in New York. Simons, who received his Ph.D. from Cornell, is a psychology professor at the University of Illinois.
Reading this book will make you less sure of yourself - and that's a good thing. In The Invisible Gorilla, Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons, creators of one of psychology's most famous experiments, use remarkable stories and counterintuitive scientific findings to demonstrate an important truth: Our minds don't work the way we think they do. We think we see ourselves and the world as they really are, but we're actually missing a whole lot.
Chabris and Simons combine the work of other researchers with their own findings on attention, perception, memory, and reasoning to reveal how faulty intuitions often get us into trouble. In the process, they explain:
* Why a company would spend billions to launch a product that its own analysts know will fail
* How a police officer could run right past a brutal assault without seeing it
* Why award-winning movies are full of editing mistakes
* What criminals have in common with chess masters
* Why measles and other childhood diseases are making a comeback
* Why money managers could learn a lot from weather forecasters
The Invisible Gorilla reveals the myriad ways that our intuitions can deceive us, but its much more than a catalog of human failings. Chabris and Simons explain why we succumb to these everyday illusions and what we can do to inoculate ourselves against their effects. Ultimately, the book provides a kind of x-ray vision into our own minds, making it possible to pierce the veil of illusions that clouds our thoughts and to think clearly for perhaps the first time.

很普通,可能我以为讲gorilla要讲attention,要从各种attention resources theory 讲,没有想到是illusion。作者思维太散了,脚踩西瓜皮滑倒哪里算哪里,全变成讲故事了。
评分Science and common sense
评分Everyday illusion!!! The illusion of attention, memory, knowledge, confidence, perspective...
评分这本书听的有声书,书里用数据和逻辑描述了几种错觉和误区,关于视觉,记忆,知识,信心,直觉,和因果关系。忠言逆耳,我有几次听的怒不可遏,隔空想和两个作者吵一架。怒气平息了之后,还是会明白他们讲的有道理的。作者们不光怼普通大众,还专门怼Blink的作者Malcolm Gladwell,怼的厉害的程度让我觉得这本书一开始就是为了怼他才写的。
评分有些里面讲到的illusion自己也犯过~
