Review Quotes:
'This book is excellent for healthcare workers of all disciplines and specialties to ponder. Most books on medical errors either provide medical-legal advice about how to avoid error and change systems, or grim muckraking designed to scare people. This book is more of a reflective text that will be useful for small group settings or journal clubs.'
