It's a really good book and it's a shame a chunk of the "thinking fast" part uses the "sexy" priming stuff which was largely unethical research / bullshit.

Kahneman / Tversky heuristics work were probably the most important cognitive psychology stuff done in recent times.

Somebody might rise to that challenge and comb through each and every mention, but if you want a HEURISTIC: if it is "cool" social priming that might get a blurb in mainstream journalism (say, a 60 second science podcast), it doesn't replicate.
