This book was required reading form my class on Marriage and Family Ethics. I was not too excited about reading yet another book on ethics, but once I started looking through the book I saw that this was not your normal dry ethics book. It had case studies that brought context and covered all the new changes in laws and polices that are current. It even covers other professional issuers for counselors such as supervision and licensure. I recommend this book if you want to be up to date in your practice. In the appendix it also includes sample documents for privacy polices and disclosure forms to help the clinician create their own that is up to standards. The most helpful part for me was a diagram of a decision tree, to help guide ethical decision making.

I have used this book in the ethics class I teach, but be aware that the AAMFT Code of Ethics was updated again since this edition was published. After 11 years with no revisions, AAMFT revised its Code of Ethics in 2012 and again in 2015, so I feel for the authors having to try to keep up with this - they revised the 5th edition to incorporate the 2012 Code of Ethics revision. I'm really hoping the authors revise this again as they have done a great job in this and in earlier editions.

This is an awesome resource,,,unfortunately windows 8 does not support on kindle so I had to use my little computer to access...The read is very direct with lots of practice examples...a must read for any person going into this field of expertise...Highly recommend!

Good, clear reading that makes sense. Durable book with glossy pages. The chapters aren't too long. Gotta love easy reads!

This book is very helpful to understand legal issues when working with clients.

I bought this kindle version for my school course. I am more expecting it looks like just other kindle book: you can adjust the word size, adjust the line space, etc. However, it is just a pdf version and you will have trouble reading such small words. When you tried to enlarge it, you would not have a full screen anymore.

The book was a requirement for a course and it arrived in great condition!

Content is ...well it's ethics. Shipping was fast.
