Mind Sights: Original Visual Illusions, Ambiguities, and Other Anomalies, With a Commentary on the Play of Mind in Perce by Roger N. Shepard

Visual "illusions" work on our brain because of our fundamental, and unconscious, perceptions. This susceptibility is not the "fault" of our perceptual systems, but the result of unconscious inferences we make to be tuned to the natural world.
