The problem of extreme complexity -- The checklist -- The end of the master builder -- The idea -- The first try -- The checklist factory -- The test -- The hero in the age of checklists -- The save.
In today's world we find ourselves in possession of stupendous know-how, yet avoidable failures are common: the volume and complexity of our knowledge has exceeded our ability to consistently deliver it to people. The solution according to Atul Gawande, top surgeon and bestselling author, is as simple as the checklist.
