The Checklist Manifesto
In “The Checklist Manifesto,” Atul Gawande explores the deceptively simple yet powerful tool of checklists. Drawing from his experiences as a surgeon, he weaves together compelling stories from aviation, construction, and medicine. Gawande’s engaging prose reveals how this humble organizational aid can prevent catastrophic errors and save lives. As I read, I found myself nodding along, recognizing the universal struggle against human fallibility. It’s a thought-provoking journey that left me reconsidering my own daily routines and the potential for improvement in the most unexpected places.
