Review

"A thorough knowledge of ethics and the application of ethical behavior is a fundamental aspect of all social work practice, regardless of setting. This book is a valuable resource that covers this difficult and complex topic in a comprehensive and understandable manner. It tackles difficult practice issues in a realistic manner and forces the reader, through its abundant use of case examples and exercises at the end of each chapter, to examine his or her values and philosophical approach to practice."
