![The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right | [Atul Gawande]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41ZZEzdhhxL._SL175_.jpg)
"Great listen; solid advise"
Would you listen to The Checklist Manifesto again? Why?This is the type of book that once you hear it, it starts you thinking. Is this a book that you would listen to over and over, I don't believe so but I do think it would be beneficial to listen to again in the future.
What did you like best about this story?Although the story does deal with medical issues, this is the authors background, it also includes the source of checklists - pilots. As with any book there has to be a purpose for you picking the book up and this is to make yourself better. Many reviewers say that the book spends too much time on surgery but the purpose of the book is to illustrate the use of checklists; this and the many other examples should be adapted to your environment.
What does John Bedford Lloyd bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?Great reader. Adds to experience.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?There are many "really" moments throughout the book that keep it interesting and relevant.
Any additional comments?Highly recommend for anyone who really wants to improve their lives - but it will take commitment and work.

![Brain Rules for Baby: How to Raise a Smart and Happy Child from Zero to Five | [John Medina]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41C5mvCjP1L._SL175_.jpg)
"Amazing, Insightful, and extremely Entertaining"
Would you consider the audio edition of Brain Rules for Baby to be better than the print version?The audio version allows you to hear the authors love for the subject which helps you focus on the vast amount of information being provided that is technical in nature. Reading it I think I would have glazed over and given up a lot earlier.
What about John Medina’s performance did you like?Mr. Media's performance and understanding of learning makes this educational and insightful tool enjoyable.
What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?That children grow adults, adults do not grow children.
Any additional comments?Must buy for anyone interested in learning why humans do what they do and how to get along better. Can't wait to start his other book!!

"Good solid easy-to-follow advise"
What made the experience of listening to Getting Things Done the most enjoyable?Mr. Allen has a natural voice that is easy to listen to and made the book an absolute joed to listen to.
What did you like best about this story?He adds his experience as a consultant in a way that apply to anyone who works and has to organize their personal and professional lives.
What does David Allen bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?His personality resonates and adds flavor to the book since he wrote it.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?Absolutely not. You need to listen, think about, and then go to the next set of topics.
Any additional comments?This is a great book that made me immediately toss my Franklin Covey organizer and make my own so I could work more efficiently since I'm a firm believer that a
