The You Code

Did you know that the way you eat your food will be sending subliminal messages out about your sexual habits? Or that the way you decorate your desk, could be helping your boss decide about that promotion or pay rise? We're all aware of the subtle messages of design and marketing but what about the signals you send out about yourself and your personality?

The You Code is the book that answers all these questions, uncovering the hidden meaning behind the simplest of choices. Judi James, with co-writer and journalist James Moore, pulls no punches in her addictive and entertaining book which gets to the nub of who you really are, telling you more about yourself than you ever wanted to know, as well as providing an intriguing insight into the people around you.

From your favourite TV programme to the type of coffee you drink, even down to the filling in your sandwich, The You Code is a must for anyone who wants to find out more about themselves and, more importantly, what everyone else thinks of them.

Reviews

Readable, surprising and provocative

—— The Times

I really enjoyed The Naked Ape by Desmond Morris. It was published in 1967 and is often a very amusing zoological perspective on human beings. The chapter on sex is hilarious

—— KT Tunstall , Independent

Stimulating

—— Arthur Koestler

Thought-provoking...Morris has introduced some novel and challenging ideas

—— Natural History

Fascinating

—— Sunday Times

I don’t think I’ve ever read a book quite so slowly… I didn’t want to miss a beat in what became an intoxicating series of revelations about not only my species but apparently about me, too. I’d never experienced a book that reached out to the reader in such a way and even now, this still holds true for The Naked Ape in that you can’t help but examine where (or even if) you fit in with Morris’s observations.

—— Ben Garrod , Observer

Original, provocative and brilliantly entertaining. It's the sort of book that changes people's lives

—— Sunday Times

A superb how-to book.

—— Kirkus Reviews

I rely on Stuart Diamond's negotiation tools every day

—— Christian Hernandez, Head of International Business Development, Facebook

One wishes this book could get into the hands of all the suffering children who need it

—— Washington Post

This story of unfathomable child abuse is told with remarkable wit, compassion, and courage

—— Augusten Burroughs, author of Running with Scissors

Highly articulate … Her memories are real, not recovered

—— The Times
