Atul Gawande

 

A welcome book … packed with vivid writing, heart-stopping anecdotes and statistical surprises ― Financial Times Published On: 2010-01-06

 

This is not a paean to bureaucracy… Gawande… has an instinctive sense of how much jargon the lay reader will tolerate – how to maintain the balance between accessibility and precision. He manages to be vivid without being gruesome… Gawande’s style is always clear, with the crispy lilt that is a trademark of the New Yorker — Rafael Behr ― Observer Published On: 2010-01-24

 

Atul Gawande [is] an oncologist, writer and contributor to the New Yorker, whose lucid, intelligent dispatches from the surgical front have entertained and terrified readers for a decade or so… [a] riveting and thought-provoking book — David Aaronovitch ― The Times Published On: 2010-01-23

 

He argues eloquently and persuasively for the humble checklist. His pitch is candid about the delusions we work under and insightful about our self-justifications for cutting corners ― British Medical Journal Published On: 2010-01-30

Acclaimed surgeon and writer Atul Gawande finds a remedy to tackle immensely complex problems with the humblest of techniques: the checklist. In riveting stories, Gawande takes us from Austria, where an emergency checklist saved a drowning victim who had spent half an hour underwater, to Michigan, where a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection. And he follows the checklist revolution into fields well beyond medicine, from disaster response to investment banking, skyscraper construction and business of all kinds.
