I think this is one of those books that is slightly overrated. It is often touted as seminal work in the world of behavioral economics. It, however, doesnt delve into the underpinnings of human cognition to the extent that I would have liked. Yes, there are plenty of example for you to fill in the blanks in but it doesnt do it justice in terms of why things are the way they are and how/why we allowed it to get to this point.
