I just wanted to give the RootSearch package a try but I wonder why
RootSearch misses some roots in the beginning of the solution when I change
the range as below:

>
> In[28]:= RootSearch[(Tan[Sqrt[theta]] - 2*Sqrt[theta]/(1 - theta)) ==
  0, {theta, 0, 1000}]

Out[28]= {{theta -> 0.}, {theta -> 5.43413}, {theta ->
   35.4046}, {theta -> 84.7952}, {theta -> 153.896}, {theta ->
   242.729}, {theta -> 351.298}, {theta -> 479.605}, {theta ->
   627.65}, {theta -> 795.435}, {theta -> 982.958}}

In[29]:= RootSearch[(Tan[Sqrt[theta]] - 2*Sqrt[theta]/(1 - theta)) ==
  0, {theta, 0, 10000}]

Out[29]= {{theta -> 0.}, {theta -> 84.7952}, {theta ->
   153.896}, {theta -> 242.729}, {theta -> 351.298}, {theta ->
   479.605}, {theta -> 627.65}, {theta -> 795.435}, {theta ->
   982.958}, {theta -> 1190.22}, {theta -> 1417.22}, {theta ->
   1663.96}, {theta -> 1930.44}, {theta -> 2216.66}, {theta ->
   2522.62}, {theta -> 2848.31}, {theta -> 3193.75}, {theta ->
   3558.93}, {theta -> 3943.84}, {theta -> 4348.49}, {theta ->
