Am I More Than You Bargained For Yet?  is not your typical psychology book. Blending raw storytelling with clinical insight, therapist Alexander McLeod brings readers inside the emotional chaos, vulnerability, and complexity of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Written by a former juvenile corrections officer turned therapist, the book offers a rare window into the inner world of emotional dysregulation, trauma, and identity disturbance. 

Where many books on BPD focus on individualized symptom descriptions, Alexander McLeod brings a unique empathy and realism to his varying portrayals of clients over their developmental life course. Blending fiction and psychology, this book gives readers an intimate and often unsettling look into how the disorder can take shape and evolve over time. His belief is that when clients are identified as having BPD, the negative realities of the disorder are acknowledged and often take precedence out of clinical necessity but tend to overshadow the full and complicated life experience of the individual person.

Great Process for Presentation Noobs
Format: Paperback
I had already agreed to give a workshop to my co-workers about how to give more effective presentations when I purchased this book for prep. I immediately adapted the recommended process. After years of creating my own slide decks I have my quirky development process. Following the guidelines in this book will allow anyone at any skill level to methodically create a dynamic slide deck and give a speech that will move the audience to action. I wish I'd had it 35 years ago, when I first started making slide decks, before I learned the hard way that bullets kill.

ESSENTIAL and Good for More Than Just Presentations
Format: Kindle
This is the second time I purchased this book. I had an older edition and decided to purchase the update. I'm glad I did, as this expands and improves upon the first edition. The book is absolutely essential for anyone putting together a presentation. Not only does it provide sound theories behind persuasion and storytelling, it makes the process dead-simple with an easy-to-follow template. And this template works for more than just presentations. The structure works for pretty much any content you're creating whether that's a presentation or a blog post or a video. Can't recommend this highly enough.

Follow the template
Format: Paperback
Not much different from the 2005 ed, which was good Version 4, it is practically verbatim. The only major change I can see is the Story Template changed all of the terminology and dropped Act III all together leaving it pretty much up to the reader to figure out how to close the presentation. I prefer the V.1 template over this one. Slicker paper and color photos, and the story boarding is more developed. Following the template is key to pulling the presentation off. A good portion of the book is still geared toward a Corporate audience with the assumption that the reader is an upper-level manager with a team of employees to do your work for you. Know what you are getting into. The creation of an effective 15 minute presentation can take hours for a solopreneur. I use the 45 minute format to create 15/20 minute training videos. I will recommend this book to anyone who creates and delivers PPT presentations, can focus and stick to the plan.
