Summary

Expanded, revised, and more reader-friendly, the second edition of this well-researched book again provides its exceptional coverage of the philosophical foundations of counseling. This is one of the most comprehensive, thorough, and readable books on the market today. After a thorough discussion of ethical principles and standards, the authors conscientiously examine ethical issues as they manifest themselves within several specialty areas-family counseling and school counseling, for example. They again include their highly-praised compendium of ethical codes-ideal for study by future counselors or as a reference for practitioners. This book addresses high interest topics such as genetics, eugenics, and managed care. It examines the variables and nuances of counseling clients of various ethical and cultural backgrounds. It also covers everything from office layout to maintaining records, from setting fees and billing to handling disagreements, computer-assisted counseling, online forums and computer-assisted assessment. For professionals in the field of counseling.
