Abstract	This highly practical book presents current developments in play therapy, including innovative applications for particular problems and populations. Contributors first discuss the latest ideas and techniques emerging from object-relations, experiential, dynamic, and narrative perspectives. Next, research evaluating the effectiveness of play interventions is reviewed in detail. The book's third and largest section demonstrates creative approaches for helping children deal with a variety of adverse circumstances: homelessness, family problems, sexual abuse, social aggression, natural disasters, and more. A special chapter discusses culturally competent practice with Mexican American children, one of the nation's fastest-growing populations. Throughout, rich case illustrations enhance the book's utility for clinicians. This book is divided into three parts. Part I, Theory, contains the first 4 chapters: (1) Object Relations Play Therapy: Applications to Attachment Problems and Relational Trauma (Helen E.
