"From the first female real estate broker on Million Dollar Listing LA, a no-bullshit guide to analyzing big egos, deflecting power plays, and taking control of any room. Behind Tracy Tutor's entertaining on-screen persona is an uncanny knack for projecting confidence in the most intimidating of circumstances. The breezy, tough-talking, utterly inimitable LA real estate broker has rivaled her male co-stars to land increasingly high-profile deals. Now Tracy is leveraging her years of experience to write the go-to manual for women who struggle to convince people they're in charge. The first step in Tracy's system for confidence is to figure out what people want and how they operate. From there, simply push the right levers of influence. Through candid, hilarious stories of her rise through the male-dominated world of high-end real estate (text message screen shots from creeps included!), Tracy offers a crash course in the psychology of power dynamics and social signaling. You'll walk away knowing: - What five things you should always find out about someone before you're in a room with them - How to communicate confidence with any outfit, even if you're dressing on a budget - The different types of humor you can use to lighten up and empower yourself in any meeting This book is a must-read for any ambitious woman who wants to learn not only how to be in important rooms but how to run them"--

Now, his son Patrick shares the letters they exchanged over two decades, offering a glimpse into how one of America's most iconic writers interacted with his children.

Edited by and including an introduction by Patrick Hemingway's nephew Brendan Hemingway and his grandson Stephen Adams, and featuring a prologue and epilogue by Patrick reflecting on his father's legacy, Dear Papa is a loving and collaborative family project and a nuanced, fascinating portrait of a father and son"--

Life on the ground floor : letters from the edge of emergency medicine / by Maskalyk, James,1973-author.;
"A celebrated humanitarian doctor's unique perspective on sickness, health and what it is to be alive. In this deeply personal book, humanitarian doctor and activist James Maskalyk, author of the highly acclaimed Six Months in Sudan, draws upon his experience treating patients in the world's emergency rooms. From Toronto to Addis Ababa, Cambodia to Bolivia, he discovers that although the cultures, resources and medical challenges of each hospital may differ, they are linked indelibly by the ground floor: the location of their emergency rooms. Here, on the ground floor, is where Dr. Maskalyk witnesses the story of "human aliveness"--our mourning and laughter, tragedies and hopes, the frailty of being and the resilience of the human spirit. And it's here too that he is swept into the story, confronting his fears and doubts and questioning what it is to be a doctor."--
