London: Arrow Books, 2004. Paperback trade, very good condition, figures, pages lightly toned, minor edgewear. 107 pp. British psychologist Richard Wiseman writes an exciting and unusual self-help book that shows a new way of creating opportunities at work and in personal life. In a recent series of psychological experiments, volunteers were assigned a counting task watching a film, and after just a few seconds a man dressed as a gorilla slowly walked into view, beat his chest at the camera, and sauntered off. Remarkably, almost none of the people watching the film noticed the gorilla. Exactly the same psychological mechanisms that cause people to miss the gorilla also make them miss unexpected but vitally important opportunities in their professional and personal lives. This book outlines the scientific evidence and thinking behind this remarkable new phenomenon, and shows you how you can spot gorillas in your life - and what to do when you see one.
