TiddlyManual

25th January 2015
What you are reading is a TiddlyManual. It is a way of manualizing complex interventions that offers multiple additional functions over paper "how-to-do-it" guides, and a lot more than other web-based treatment manuals that do not use the highly innovative opensource software called TiddlyWiki (hence the name.)

Tiddlymanuals take much inspiration from the 'OpenSource' movement in computer software development. They are freely available (though released under a Creative commons License), as the notion of closely guarded, and expensively-marketed, intellectual property in respect of best psychotherapeutic practice seems contradictory in the helping professions. We acknowledge the support of the Anna Freud Centre and our Sponsors in allowing this development.

Practitioners using Tiddlymanuals remain responsible for their own professional practice.

TiddlyManuals take the form of Wikis, but they function as completely self-contained and easily editable documents, too; they can be downloaded, saved locally, and run from a USB stick, or a local computer without any access to the internet.

See Using the Manual for more details, and go to @tiddlymanuals to see other versions of tiddlymanuals that are available.
