This is a book review of Cognitive Errors and Diagnostic Mistakes.

though i haven't read the book, it seems very interesting and i think many others here will find it interesting.

Here's the description of the article:

Cognitive Errors and Diagnostic Mistakes is a superb new guide to critical thinking in medicine written by Jonathan Howard. It explains how our psychological foibles regularly bias and betray us, leading to diagnostic mistakes. Learning critical thinking skills is essential but difficult. Every known cognitive error is illustrated with memorable patient stories.
