This reminds me of Malcolm Gladwell's book Blink. The premise is that people have the ability to "thin slice" situations by subconsciously extracting only the most important facts available from the environment (this ability is enhanced by experience).

By doing this, the brain's processing power can focus on just those things that matter, and the result is that our subconscious reaches conclusions before our conscious (sometimes even in direct opposition to our conscious).

We know more than we think we do.
