Super annoying to read because the author describes research after research in painstaking details, and when he finally gets to the point he repeats it again and again. He also introduces many arbitrary names and abbreviations for things, which makes it even more confusing.

That being said, there are some very good points in this book. It points out what to look for in your own judgement and behaviour and teaches you not to trust your own nonsense.

Kahneman definitely knows what he is talking about, he is just more of an academic than a writer.
