    Summary, Analysis, and Review of Brene Brown's Daring Greatly PLEASE NOTE: This is a key takeaways and analysis of the book and NOT the original book. Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Brene Brown's Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead includes a summary of the book, review, analysis & key takeaways, and detailed About the Author section. PREVIEW: In Daring Greatly, Brene Brown expands her over twelve years of academic research on the anatomy of connection into a 250+ page how-to on engaging more fully with ourselves and our world. The title comes from a 1910 speech by Theodore Roosevelt, given at the Sorbonne after his presidency, about disavowing the non-participatory critics in favor of the man in the arena. Brown discusses where our fear of vulnerability comes from, why we protect ourselves, the price of disengagement, and owning and engaging with vulnerability to transform ourselves into better (if messier) beings.

     How a great American president communicated a changing worldview What made Franklin Delano Roosevelt an effective leader? His policies and decisions changed our nation’s and the world’s history. But more than his skill as a savvy politician and progressive thinker, FDR’s ability to directly and eloquently voice his thoughts on national concerns, social change, and humanity spoke to and reached the hearts of his people. In this selection of quotes drawn from his speeches and papers, FDR’s observations and opinions cover everything from faith, war, and peace, to religion, freedom, and the very definition of what it is to be an American. Essays include “The Four Freedoms,” “We Belong to Many Races,” “True Education,” “The Rights of the Common Man,” “Dynamic Democracy,” and “Government with a Soul.”

    The author of The Bundy Murders shares unprecedented access to official case files in the investigations to apprehend the infamous serial killer.   In the 1970s, as Ted Bundy spread terror across the United States, law enforcement agencies from the Pacific Northwest to the Rocky Mountains to Florida attempted to put an end to his depraved killing spree. In The Bundy Secrets, true crime author and Bundy expert Kevin M. Sullivan provides a revealing chronicle of these police investigations through the original case files, shown to the reader just as they appeared to detectives themselves.   The third volume in Sullivan’s Bundy Trilogy, this book presents a “just the facts” chronology of formerly classified documents detailing the nationwide manhunt for America’s most infamous serial killer. It also includes contemporary interviews gathered by Sullivan from dozens of sources along Bundy’s trail of terror. The Bundy Secrets is an essential collection of primary source documents for true crime students of Ted Bundy.
