This book introduces the Multiple Self-States Drawing Technique (MSSDT), a creative, transdiagnostic, clinical assessment tool and treatment intervention for child and adolescent clients. The MSSDT provides clinicians and patients with a novel opportunity to bridge the gap in youngsters’ selves-awareness of discrete emotional states. Dr. Parente teaches clinicians how to guide clients through this contemporaneous version of projective figure drawing in order to discover and explore trauma-based, dissociative, and emotionally dysregulated self-states and to focus on adaptive, resilient states of well-being. Specific, step-by-step instructions are provided, and case illustrations demonstrating the proposed clinical advantages of the method are presented. Chapters show how this experiential, psycho-educational, arts-based activity can be flexibly applied to a broad range of ages and clinical populations and how using the MSSDT may support mental health professionals’ clinical work. Through this manual, clinicians will learn how to help clients foster a beneficial relational encounter, promote therapeutic self-expression, and develop an enhanced self and other awareness.

Enterprise Curl is an advanced level handbook aimed at developing a full-featured enterprise application written in Curl for experienced web developers, system architects, and project managers. Unlike other Curl books, this will not be a beginner's introduction to the Curl language, or to distributed application architecture and development, as those topics are covered in detail elsewhere by other authors and journals. Instead, Enterprise Curl is built around the creation of a feature-rich eCommerce application in Curl, and each chapter will build on the previous resulting in a fully functional system. What is Curl? Curl is a fully object-oriented language that takes the best features of Java, HTML, DHTML, JavaScript, and Perl, and combines them into a cross-platform cross-browser language that's easy-to-learn yet quite powerful. Curl began in development at MIT in 1995, when they were awarded a government DARPA grant to "develop the next generation of communication and computation software." In the 8 months that Curl has been commercially available, over 170,000 people have downloaded the development platform.

Filled with step-by-step demonstrations, inspiring images, and insightful text revealing a wide range of techniques and concepts, this book presents new ways to think about the figure and use your materials to free the artist within.
