Steve, I have now read (and posted a review of) Thinking Fast and Slow.

The map to Pirsig isn't perfect.
System 1 is definitely closer to dynamic - but I think it's more. It
has the empirical immediacy, but also the subjective
decision-processing of the intuition, including evolved bio&social
patterns I'd say. System 2 is the "intellectual" to the dynamic's
"pre-intellectual.
