I enjoyed the read, and hope that it will help me avoid several fallacies (or self-lies? even..). Several of the figures and tables were not clear and not well explained -- maybe this was to force the reader to use "System 2" and really take in the contents? :) There were also a few typos that I found annoying. The book was a bit of work to read (again, maybe this is good, according to the author's hypothesis). But I enjoyed this survey of a psychologists overview of the "basis" for behavioral economics.

This was definitely a worthwhile read, but it could have used some polishing to be an even better book.
