really liked it

Thinking, Fast and Slow is a masterpiece that takes you through the inner workings of thought, both in its spontaneity and calculations. Kahneman has developed a sophisticated model of the brain that supports claims that he has researched experimentally over the years.
I found the section on cognitive biases of particular interest. Many repetitions and redundant observations (especially in prospect theory) are found throughout the book, which at times made it a tedious read.
