Reviews

From a Master's Student in Counseling Psychology- I thought ethics would be arduous and full of technical terms and rules...This book was transformative in the way I look at ethics. It was so easy to read/understand and the layout made it so readable. i really appreciate the Journal Entry prompts and the Food for Thought prompts as well! Who knew I would find an ethics book I couldn't put down?!
