Synopsis:

This classic social work text helps students recognize ethical issues and dilemmas, reason carefully about ethical issues, clarify their ethical aspirations at the level demanded by the profession, and achieve a more ethical stance in their practice. It places ethical decision-making within the context of professional ethics and provides guidelines, including two ethical screens to help social work practitioners identify priorities among competing ethical obligations.

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."
