Atul Gawande Collection 4 Books Set (The Checklist Manifesto, Being Mortal, Complications, Better a Surgeon's Notes on Performance)

4.4/5 ( ratings)

Atul Gawande Collection 4 Books Set Includes Titles in This Set:- The Checklist Manifesto, Being Mortal, Complications, Better a Surgeon's Notes on Performance. Description:- The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right. Atul Gawande In this groundbreaking book, Atul Gawande makes a compelling argument for the checklist, which he believes to be the most promising method available in surmounting failure. Whether you're following a recipe, investing millions of dollars in a company or building a skyscraper, the checklist is an essential tool in virtually every area of our lives, and Gawande explains how breaking down complex, high pressure tasks into small steps can radically improve everything from airline safety to heart surgery survival rates. Being Mortal: Illness, Medicine and What Matters in the End For most of human history, death was a common, ever-present possibility. It didn't matter whether you were five or fifty - every day was a roll of the dice. But now, as medical advances push the boundaries of survival further each year, we have become increasingly detached from the reality of being mortal. Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science This is a stunningly well-written account of the life of a surgeon: what it is like to cut into people's bodies and the terrifying - literally life and death - decisions that have to be made.There are accounts of operations that go wrong; of doctors who go to the bad; why autopsies are necessary; what it feels like to insert your knife into someone. Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance The struggle to perform well is universal, but nowhere is this drive to do better more important than in medicine. In his new book, Atul Gawande explores how doctors strive to close the gap between best intentions and best performance in the face of obstacles that sometimes seem insurmountable.
