This was a pretty good book. It showed me the importance of checklists in every profession you could imagine, including flight, business, surgery, and more. I have personally always tried to work by checklists because I've always known the importance of them. But I just couldn't follow them. I would stay with a checklist for a day or so then quit writing the list. I am not very consistent. This book showed me the importance of keeping a checklist, and not even for record keeping purposes. Simply because it prevents a lot of errors that could be caught by using a checklist in the first place. This is a book focused on medicine and flying airplanes. But throughout the examples you will find bits of information where you see why you should be using a checklist in your own profession. And that includes homemakers as well. I heard a lot about this book before I read it and thought it would have more advice in relation to what I can do to make my checklist. Unfortunately, it does not. It only tells (and just a little bit at that...Unless you're a surgeon or pilot) the benefits of using them.
