dianezeigler asked: Dear Philippa
I've enjoyed your blog since I discovered it, and I thought it most appropriate that I reach out to you about a new book coming out that is right up your alley. new book, which is due out soon, published by Chelsea Green Publishing, whom I am a publicist for. I signed up for Tumblr just so I can send you this message; not sure you will receive it.
"The Color of Atmosphere: One Doctor's Journey In and Out of Medicine" is written by Dr. Maggie Kozel's - she had a 17 year career as a pediatrician before leaving medicine. Her story details the journey of falling in love with medicine, devoting her life to it, and her eventual choice to walk away with it. It's a moving memoir that also portrays how health care is failing not only patients, but doctors. Maggie also blogs regularly at Huffpo and has a new post up today on KevinMD (http://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2010/12/health-care-economics-relationship-doctor-patient.html#more-49786).
You can learn more about her book here. I'd be happy to send you a copy if you are interested in reading, and perhaps, writing about the book.
Many thanks for your time

Hi Diane
Thank you for writing. I believe a copy of the book is already on its way to me, as I was contacted through The Entrepreneurial MD. I am eager to read her story and respond! Happy New Year.
Thanks again
Philippa
