Kahneman's talk at Google summarized the first 2 chapters pretty well: [VIDEO] I strongly recommend it for anyone who doesn't have time to read the book. As for the book itself, I agree with some others' postings here -- it's absolutely fantastic. It changed the way I think about human cognition and education... not to mention machine learning, politics, and marketing.

I believe the bit about priming was refuted in some repro attempts. If you're short on time, watch Kahneman's talk at Google, which basically summarizes the first chapter or so. [VIDEO]
