Yeah, I bought the Kindle version a few days ago. Very handy for getting up to speed very quickly on our understanding of intelligence. I wish there was an Oxford Handbook of Rationality that wasn’t from 2005 and didn’t suck.
It’s too focused on philosophical issues, not sufficiently aware of contemporary rationality science, and its chapters aren’t handy broad overviews but instead relatively narrow in scope. Luckily, we now have the Oxford Handbook of Thinking and Reasoning, which is quite good.
Ok, I’m getting this book.

Do you mean handbook published in 2004? And could you please describe in a few words why does it suck?
