Enjoyable June 12, 2008

I liked the book. It was interesting and well written...not extremely addicting, but enjoyable.
 Interesting Book June 18, 2008

I found this book to provide an interesting perspective into human behavior. The authors make a good case for Libertarian Paternalism. The book is well written and accessible to a wide audience.
Excellent even for normal people June 25, 2008

I'm not an economist and I rarely read non-fiction, but this is an excellent book. The authors' insights seem just like common sense -- except no one really thought of it before. Treat yourself to a good and educational read.

This book provides insights to those who need to move people to make good decisions and if they cannot, then the default would do them the least harm. Many of the examples that they have provided are not new, e.g. Singapore has adopted the opt-out model for organ donation years ago. The idea on privatising marriage by the authors is an interesting one.

The subject matter is good but like so many books of this type, it would have been a much better read at 1/3 its length.
