I listened to Atul Gawan de's Checklist Manifesto Book as an audiobook over the course of couple of hours earlier this week. Thoughts.
Having pretended earlier in life to have read the material, I found it more detailed and useful than I anticipated, yet also too technical. And. perhaps I'm making too many unjustified connections, but much like 'Range', the book I'd previously 'read', this too seemed to argue that the problem in our hyper- technical and specialized world is one of collaboration and communication, and one of organizing experts and specialists to collaborate across domains. It proposes a pretty simple and effective solution, taken from the fields of aviation and construction, and narrates the doctor's attempt at implementing it to the medical field.
It is quite likely I'll read this book many times over. If that is not one of the highest honors I can give to a book, I don't know what is!
