No, on the contrary. I agree with his ideas completely.
Think of an explorer who had found a new land. He describes its nature, people, social organizations, etc, so well that you can easily imagine what it would be like to live there. But he don't tell where it is, what are its neighbours or how you could get there. You cannot associate it with your present worldview; sooner or later you'll forget it as any useless information.
That's what disturbed me. Kahneman's views are too remarkable to be left forgotten. I won't forget them; I have made associations my way, but I would have liked to know more about his, just to get a firmer ground under my feet.
