This stunning hardcover journal is a bold, interactive guide to discovering and creating the truest, most beautiful lives, families and world we can imagine, based on the #1 Sunday Times and New York
Times bestseller Untamed.
"We must stop asking people for directions to places they've never been. Every life is an unprecedented experiment. We are all pioneers. I created Get Untamed: The Journal as an interactive experience in charting our own way - so we can let burn that which is not true and beautiful enough and get started building what is." - Glennon Doyle
With Untamed, Glennon Doyle -writer, activist, and "patron saint of female empowerment" (People) - ignited a movement. Untamed has been described as "a wake-up call" (Tracee Ellis Ross), "an anthem for women today" (Kristen Bell), and a book that "will shake your brain and make your soul scream" (Adele). Glennon now offers a new way of journaling, one that reveals how we can stop striving to meet others' expectations-because when we finally learn that satisfying the world is impossible, we quit pleasing and start living. Whether or not you have read Untamed, this journal leads you to rediscover, and begin to trust, your own inner-voice.
Full of thought-provoking exercises, beloved quotations from Untamed, compelling illustrations, playful and meditative coloring pages, and an original introduction, in Get Untamed: The Journal, Glennon guides us through the process of examining the aspects of our lives that can make us feel caged. This revolutionary method for uprooting culturally-constructed ideas shows us how to discover for ourselves what we want to keep and what we'll let burn so that we can build lives by design instead of default.
A one-of-a-kind journal experience, Get Untamed proves Glennon's philosophy that "imagination is not where we go to escape reality, but where we go to remember it."
‘Untamed will liberate women - emotionally, spiritually, and physically. It is phenomenal.’ (Elizabeth Gilbert, author of City of Girls and Eat Pray Love)
Who were you before the world told you who to be?
Part inspiration, part memoir, Untamed explores the joy and peace we discover when we stop striving to meet the expectations of the world, and instead dare to listen to and trust in the voice deep inside us. From the beloved New York Times bestselling author, speaker and activist Glennon Doyle.
For many years, Glennon Doyle denied her discontent. Then, while speaking at a conference, she looked at a woman across the room and fell instantly in love. Three words flooded her mind: There. She. Is. At first, Glennon assumed these words came to her from on high but soon she realised they had come to her from within. This was the voice she had buried beneath decades of numbing addictions and social conditioning. Glennon decided to let go of the world’s expectations of her and reclaim her true untamed self.
Soulful and uproarious, forceful and tender, Untamed is both an intimate memoir and a galvanising wake-up call. It is the story of how one woman learned that a responsible mother is not one who slowly dies for her children, but one who shows them how to fully live. It is also the story of how each of us can begin to trust ourselves enough to set boundaries, make peace with our bodies, honour our anger and heartbreak, and unleash our truest, wildest instincts.
Untamed shows us how to be brave. And, as Glennon insists, 'The braver we are, the luckier we get.'

With the end of the Cold War, many believed that a new, more stableinternational legal order would emerge. But an enormous gap in values-most noticeably concerning armed intervention-has prevented that from happening. One group of nations continues to cling to the United Nations Charter's ban against intervention, while another group-led by NATO and the UN Security Council itself-openly violates that prohibition. In fact, the ban has been breached so often that it can no longer be regarded as authoritative. Whether the resulting legal vacuum can be filled is the overriding international question of the era.
Why has U.S. security policy scarcely changed from the Bush to the
Obama administrations? The theory of "double government" posed by
the 19th century English scholar Walter Bagehot suggests a
disquieting answer that is extensively discussed in National
Security and Double Government. Michael J. Glennon challenges the
myth that U.S. security policy is made through the visible,
"Madisonian institutions"-the President, Congress, and the courts,
proposing that their roles are largely illusory. Presidential
control is nominal, congressional oversight is dysfunctional, and
judicial review is negligible. He argues that security policy is
really made by the managers of the military, intelligence,
diplomatic, and law enforcement agencies- a concealed "Trumanite
network" of several hundred members who are responsible for
protecting the nation, and who are primarily immune from
constitutional restraints. As such, this new system of "double
government" will not correct itself, as to do so would require
those branches to exercise the very power that they lack. Glennon
suggests that the main problem is political ignorance, which is
becoming more acute as public influence on security policy
declines. This book aims to inform and enlighten the reader about
the Trumanite network, and highlight the restraints on the
Constitution, which operates primarily upon the hollowed-out
Madisonian institutions, and poses a grave threat to democratic
accountability.

How we manage public services and hold them to account is
critically important. Yet austerity, recent changes to
accountability frameworks, and the loss of the Audit Commission
have created a huge deficit in our understanding of how well
services are delivered. The time is thus right to re-examine the
state of our vital public services, as well as how we can make them
more accountable. This book reopens the debate on what
accountability means and provides unique insights into an
increasingly complex organizational landscape. It presents a new
and innovative way of evaluating public services that should be of
use to academics and public servants alike. Synthesising empirical
work across local government, health and social care, the police,
and fire services, this book also explores the relationship between
financial and performance accountability and makes the case for the
need for a distinctive sense of public service accountability.
In the U.S. legal system, the federal government has traditionally
been the only rightful arena for the conduct of foreign affairs,
especially in the case of national security, military action,
international trade, and treaty-making. However, the pervasiveness
of globalization and the attendant ease of cross-border
interactions, with implications for commerce and terrorism, have
brought U.S. states, counties, and municipalities increasingly into
the federal government's long-standing province of international
relations. For example, states now forge trade relationships with
foreign governments through energy and investment contracts that
very much resemble treaties. If a foreign sovereign violates any of
these contracts or statutes, then civil or criminal action against
that sovereign could interfere with the U.S. federal government's
diplomatic relations overseas. Consequently, the legal status of
states and local governments in the conduct of foreign affairs is
unclear and in need of thoughtful analysis and guidance. In Foreign
Affairs Federalism, Michael Glennon and Robert Sloane study the
constitutional allocation of foreign affairs powers between the
federal government and the states. They explain the current law
clearly and accessibly, identifying those areas where the law can
be confidently ascertained. Where the law cannot be determined,
they suggest the most plausible or compelling perspectives on
existing doctrine. They also appraise existing doctrine against the
background of the diverse and incompatible goals and challenges
facing the United States in the twenty-first century.
