    About this ebook

    The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right by Atul Gawande | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    An essential read for any individual working to do things the right way.

    With the unstoppable technological growth and the constant evolution and optimization of any given process, every activity has gained more complexity. Everyday, it is becoming harder and harder to keep up with complicated procedures and it's normal to feel overwhelmed, but what can we do to address this? Checklists, an old but gold method.

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "One essential characteristic of modern life is that we all depend on systems – on assemblages of people or technologies or both – and among our most profound difficulties is making them work." – Atul Gawande

    Checklists were invented long ago, but they are still used. They were created out of necessity to execute the extremely complicated process of flying military aircraft but they still have a lot of relevance. And that's because checklists have evolved as well with the passing of time. Gawande with his medical experience demonstrate how even surgeons tasked to do complex surgeries use checklists to aid them during the procedure and it has reduced the rate of fatalities by more than a third. There are a lot of proof about how influential checklists are in the modern era and in The Checklist Manifesto you'll learn all about it.

    Gawande shares with us riveting stories about the importance of checklists. Their power might shock you but they will also convince you of their utility.

    P.S. The Checklist Manifesto is an extremely informative book that will teach you the importance of checklists, an invention many people nowadays mistakenly underestimate.

    P.P.S. It was Albert Einstein who famously said that once you stop learning, you start dying. It was Bill Gates who said that he would want the ability to read faster if he could only have one superpower in this world.

      The book explores Gawande's first disastrous efforts to craft a surgical checklist, the learning from other professions about what makes a good checklist, and is richly illustrated with stories of failures, near misses, and saves from different domains, and is a very powerful read.
    • 4/5
      I like a book a that directly applies to life and the choices we can make for excellence. Full of real situations illustrating the impact of his premise, the book gets you thinking. It fully describes a tool one could develop in a variety of arenas in ones life to make better decisions and bring about success.
    • 5/5
      Highly recommend the book. I don’t think you need to reward it cover to cover - some key chapters will get you 90% of the value, but the prose is so good that you may as well enjoy it.
    • 5/5

      I had to read this book for work, and I wasn't looking forward to it. To my surprise it has a very good narrative is quite readable. The examples used are compelling and keep the pages turning.
