Reviews
“The purpose is to show how often mistakes are made in healthcare, as well as to provide ways to protect healthcare professionals from making these mistakes. … This book is written for … the mass of people throughout healthcare. … This book is intriguing with the many examples and comparisons of healthcare throughout the U.S. and Europe. The title is useful and I anticipate that it will be read by many.” (Jessica Ruth Ferraro, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2016)
