……在加拿大的事故。他认为自己担任核潜艇军官的岁月塑造了他的一生,以至于掌管海军反应堆的海曼·里科弗(Hyman Rickover)上将问他的一个问题,成了他书名《为什么不是最好的?》(Why Not the Best?)的由来[1]。卡特总统非常清楚有艘潜艇以自己的名字命名以及背后的原因,并且亲口表示有一艘以自己命名的潜艇感到无比自豪。[2] 而且还不只是一艘潜艇;那可是海狼级(Seawolf)……
…accident in Canada. He considered his time as a nuclear submarine officer so formative that a question to him from the Admiral in charge of Naval Reactors, Hyman Rickover, formed the title of his book "Why Not the Best?" [1] President Carter was well-aware that the submarine was named after him and why, and stated himself how proud he was to have a submarine named after him. [2] Not just a submarine either; the Seawolf…
…replied: "No, sir, I didn’t always do my best." And Rickover asked "why not?" This significantly impacted Jimmy Carter and eventually became the title of a book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/645520.Why_Not_the_Best_ I think GP is probably pattern matching a bit too much. It's plausibly connected, but I doubt it.
…about where to go. And lastly, you can look up the statistics about how good hospitals are at treating different things in general. For example, according to the Commonwealth Fund report from last year ("Why Not The Best?"), hospitals have gotten much better at treating heart attacks in the last five years. Granted, you'd still need to go to the ER if you were having a heart attack anyway, but at least you know now that…

……回答说:“报告长官,我并不总是竭尽全力。”然后里科弗问:“为什么不呢?”这深深触动了吉米·卡特,最终成了他一本书的书名:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/645520.Why_Not_the_Best_ 我觉得主楼(GP)可能有点过度 pattern matching(强行对号入座)了。听起来似乎有关联,但我表示怀疑。

……关于去哪儿。最后,你还可以查阅统计数据,看看各个医院通常在治疗不同病症方面表现如何。比如,根据联邦基金会去年的报告(《为什么不是最好的?》),医院在过去五年里治疗心脏病的水平有了很大提升。诚然,如果心脏病发作你反正是得去 ER(急诊室)的,但至少你现在知道了……
