For surgeons, quality improvement and patient safety are not new. Over the last few decades, surgeons have held weekly morbidity and mortality conferences (M&M). This conference allows surgeons an opportunity to look at their errors, investigate the root cause of the error, and discuss how to be better. Charles L. Bosk, PhD is a sociologist who studied surgeon training in the 1970s. In his book, Forgive and Remember: Managing Medical Failure, Dr. Bosk provides an insiders perspective into the world of training surgeons. Although it was written 30 years ago, many of the observations noted in the book remain true. This book is a must read for medical students, surgery residents, and anyone interested the training of surgeons.
