His easy to read writing style and use of everyday examples (driving, raising children, work environment) help to understand these basic principles, which are as valid to managers as they are to parents. Marx can't (and doesn't bother to) hide its US background (civil/tort law), but doesn't remain blind for foreign best-practices (UK, New Zealand). His message is clear: stop playing Whack-a-Mole and this book is the perfect means to get that message across.PS: personally I would have loved to see some academic references (which he defintely has), but it doesn't affect the quality of the text. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Improvement vs. Destruction *by I***4 on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2013* Accusing the others has become a wide spread bad habit - damaging relations with children, friends and colleagues. The sooner we get rid of it - the better. This book gives a new perspective to our eternal request for perfection in everybody - from our own kids to the luggage trolley driver at the airport. David Marx brings up statistics and real cases which prove the obvious: Nobody is perfect and errors are part of life. This is the funny part. Then comes the serious - and really interesting one - a study of the ways to improve people`s (and our own!) performance without doing more damage than help. This is a piece of precious information for any parent, friend and manager. It improves your life and relations immediately - as you start practicing the three-stage approach to human errors, presented in the book. The sooner YOU start - the better for all - including yourself! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Guilty as charged! *by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2013* Perhaps its the fault of my liberal education, but after reading this book I can see I am guilty of many of the behaviors described in this book like being a "no harm no foul" manager. And, while I may have been able to identify those behaviors and their potential negative impact on my organization, this book also has given me some tools to be able to start taking steps to change those behaviors- for everyone's benefit.
