I'll be so mad if I don't end up citing this book at least 20 times.
As the other reviewer said, this is a technical book. It probably won't even fall into your hands unless you are deep in a university library somewhere.
My supervisor recommended this book as general reading around my topic, and yup, extensive notes were taken. While I can't say that I've read and digested every word of every argument, it appears to be very thorough and more elaborated than similar texts from the dual-systems/processes/types/minds (because consistent terminology is for pussies) theory side of things.
The clear structuring into chapters-> sections-> subsections is also extremely helpful, as are internal references to previous/following sections of the book for more extensive argumentation of some topics. Idk, may be this is just good practice in academic texts, but I haven't seen this done this clearly before, so I'm impressed.
