  What Your Favorite Color Says...

  Color is a fundamental part of human experience, shaping emotions, perceptions, and even behavior. From ancient civilizations to modern psychology, color has been studied for its impact on the human mind. Some colors evoke feelings of warmth and excitement, while others create a sense of calm and relaxation. But beyond their immediate effects, colors can also serve as a reflection of personality and identity. The idea that a person’s favorite color reveals something about their character has intrigued psychologists, researchers, and individuals alike. This book explores the fascinating connection between color preferences and human psychology, offering insights into how and why we gravitate toward certain shades.  
  How a person develops a preference for a particular color is influenced by multiple factors, including early childhood experiences, cultural associations, and even genetic predispositions. Some psychologists suggest that color preferences are rooted in personal memories—positive experiences with a specific color may lead to a lasting affinity for it. Additionally, cultural and societal norms play a significant role in shaping perceptions of color. For example, while white represents purity and new beginnings in Western cultures, it is often associated with mourning in parts of Asia. These cultural variations demonstrate that color meanings are not universal, but rather deeply ingrained in social contexts.  
  Despite these external influences, color preferences are also highly personal and can evolve over time. A child who loves bright and playful colors like yellow or orange may later develop an appreciation for more subdued tones such as blue or gray. Life experiences, emotional growth, and shifting priorities contribute to these changes.

  “Hearing Dr. Tweedy speak was less of a lecture and more of an open invitation to engage in a meaningful conversation with a passionate caregiver. Dr. Tweedy’s personal stories prompted a ton of reflection on compassion, mental health, patient-centered care, and our own identity-related biases. These insights are invaluable as we return to our clinical settings, better equipped to care with and for our patients.” — Megan Walsh, Program Manager DEI, Case Western Reserve University, Medical SchoolA NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S TOP TEN NONFICTION BOOKS OF THE YEARA LIBRARY JOURNAL BEST BOOK SELECTION • A BOOKLIST EDITORS' CHOICE BOOK SELECTIONThis program is read by the author.One doctor's passionate and profound memoir of his experience grappling with race, bias, and the unique health problems of black AmericansWhen Damon Tweedy begins medical school, he envisions a bright future where his segregated, working-class background will become largely irrelevant. Instead, he finds that he has joined a new world where race is front and center. The recipient of a scholarship designed to increase black student enrollment, Tweedy soon meets a professor who bluntly questions whether he belongs in medical school, a moment that crystallizes the challenges he will face throughout his career. Making matters worse, in lecture after lecture the common refrain for numerous diseases resounds, "More common in blacks than in whites."Black Man in a White Coat examines the complex ways in which both black doctors and patients must navigate the difficult and often contradictory terrain of race and medicine. As Tweedy transforms from student to practicing physician, he discovers how often race influences his encounters with patients. Through their stories, he illustrates the complex social, cultural, and economic factors at the root of many health problems in the black community. These issues take on greater meaning when Tweedy is himself diagnosed with a chronic disease far more common among black people. In this powerful, moving, and deeply empathic book, Tweedy explores the challenges confronting black doctors, and the disproportionate health burdens faced by black patients, ultimately seeking a way forward to better treatment and more compassionate care.A Macmillan Audio production from Picador.

  The France Alphabet is a wry, informative handbook for the discerning international traveller on how to handle the French. It offers essential A-Z insights into France and its ways through a snap alphabetic look at characters, traditions and historical events that together get to the essence of who the French are. France's best known writers and thinkers over the centuries come under the handbook's microscope with a light, challenging touch, as do world figures like Napoleon and Joan of Arc as well as France's role in high fashion, sex and the art of staying slim. For newcomers to France, indeed also for those already acquainted with its ways, The France Alphabet gives fresh insider counsel on how to discuss these things, some extremely touchy, when in French company. Each A-Z feature, from A is for Art, through R is for Revolution to Z is for Zola is the selection of English author David Lawday, who has long made France his home and has a French wife. Each one - with a brisk commentary and matching cartoon - epitomizes what it is that helps make the French the way they are.
