    I bought this as a required text for class, expecting it to be as dull as every other required textbook. However, this book has great examples and case studies, is very readable and although the chapters are sometimes quite long, it's not awful to read through the whole thing.
    (arrived on time and in good quality)

    I purchased Issues & Ethics In The Helping Professions brand new and came in nearly perfect condition, except for some minor wear in the spleen of the book!
    I love the fact the text has minimal color; the color it does has is neutral and not bright!
