In their book The Invisible Gorilla: How Our Intuitions Deceive Us, cognitive psychology professors DanielSimons and Christopher Charbris write extensively about human limitations in perception.
Prof DanielSimons, author of the original invisible gorilla study, explained that this effect is not unique to radiologists and reflects the way our attention system works.
Psychologists DanielSimons and Christopher Chabris are co-authors of "The Invisible Gorilla, " a forthcoming book explaining why humans so often fail to observe information that should be obvious.
