GREAT!!! MAYBE THE BEST!!!

The book was supposed to arrive within 2 weeks and it got here in 6 days!!! That was awesome!!!! I mean, the shipping charges weren't expensive at all and the book got here REAAAALLY fast, plus it was in GREAT conditions (the book was new, it still had the wrapping, and it came in a package I considered perfect for books and great for their protection). I DEFINITELY recommend this seller and I would buy from them again without hesitating, THANKS FOR THE GREAT TRANSACTION!!!!

the source book for psychological ethics

i attended a forensic psychology ethics workshop conducted by dr. bersoff, which propelled me to reading his book that had gathered dust on my shelf this past year. the book was edited by bersoff, a former board member and legal counsel of the APA. chapter authors read like a who's who in the field. the content is well-organized. the book is quite readable. they re-print and discuss the APA ethics code, guidelines, ethical issues and laws fairly extensively. i'd love to see applied research on ethical decision making. outstanding resource

Informative, thought-provoking book

i bought this book for a graduate school class in ethics for psychologists and found it to be extremely thought-provoking and informative. the ethical guidelines are discussed in an easy-to-understand format, and numerous case examples are provided that really make you think about where you stand on various issues facing mental health practitioners. highly recommended reading--excellent for someone just starting in the field and a great refresher for those who have been practicing for awhile.
