Editorial Review:

The comprehensive guide to ethics

"An excellent blend of case law, research evidence, down-to-earth principles, and practical examples from two authors with outstanding expertise. Promotes valuable understanding through case illustrations, self-directed exercises, and thoughtful discussion of such issues as cultural diversity."--Dick Suinn, president-elect 1998, American Psychological Association

"The scenarios and accompanying questions will prove especially helpful to those who offer courses and workshops concerned with ethics in psychology."--Charles D. Spielberger, former president, American Psychological Association; distinguished research professor of psychology, University of South Florida

The authors draw on their professional experience, empirical studies, and case examples to examine the ethical responsibilities that confront psychotherapists and counselors in their day-to-day practice. They offer insights into contending with the sometimes competing demands of clients' needs, formal ethical principles, personal values, and evolving legal standards in a range of areas--including fees, informed consent, sexual concerns, confidentiality, documentation, and supervision.

Easy Ethics:

I used this book for my text in my graduate Ethics study and enjoyed it. I found it easy to read and comprehend. The scenarios and questions make you think about your responses to ethical dilemmas. I would recommend this for anyone interested in ethical psychological debate, or for those who set up their own curriculum for an ethics-based class.

Books in Amazon. Com are reasonable. I do really recommend friends to go to Amazon.com. The prize is not that much expensive.:

Thanks for the service. So far I am happy with your services. Keep up! I did share my appreciation for your services with so many friends of mine. I found Amazon.com accessable, reasonable and effective. I can confidently state that Amazon.com staff seem to be effective. I would encourage you to keep up. Thanks again.

Ethics in Psychotherapy and Counseling: A Pratical Guide:

The book is great for any you who needs to caught up on their use of ethics in the psychological realm.

Not All Ethics Texts are Created Equal:

I thought I read every ethics text throughout my close to ten years in higher education. Obviously, this one was left out. This is an excellent text, easily readable, engaging, practical, and down to earth. I look forward to picking it up and continuing on each day. This text should be used in every ethics class and by every professional in the field of human service. Incredible job by the authors. Definitely recommended to every practicing clinician.
