it was amazing

This is a great book! It is a bit technical, but certainly not esoteric. I found the cognitive biases and the discussion around them very interesting; even profound. It is very eye-opening to see the fallibility of humans and that too in quite predictable ways. The ideas around the "remembering self" and "experiencing self" have forever changed the way I look at life.

I wish I had read this book a bit earlier in my life, but I doubt if I would have looked at the teachings in the same light as I do now. I would strongly recommend this book to everyone and would put this in the league of "must read books for life" along with Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad, Dale Carnegie's How to make friends and influence people, Sean/Stephen Covey's 7 habits of highly effective Teens/people.
