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.

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.

心理学科普读物共有的毛病,当然是无法避免。那就是,作者举了个例子,想要说明一个观点,但是说不明白,于是就再举个例子。举完例二,仍然说不清楚,就来个例三。最后全文的结束,当然还是一个例子。没有抽象概括能力的心理学家们,特别喜欢讲琐碎的故事,因此你无法与他们争辩,因为他们几乎没有逻辑思考能力,你反驳他在某个例子里隐约想要表达的观点,他就用另一个例子搅乱你,让你忘记你最初反驳的点,最后,很多个小时过去了,你都忘了你们说了些什么,除了大约听了很多类似的故事之外。
