Book Reviews of Traversing the Ethical Minefield: Problems, Law, and Professional Responsibility

Book Review: Not Happy
Summary: 1 Stars

The $40 I spent on this book was a complete waste. The text was barely legible. "Substantial Highlighting" would have been a TRUTHFUL description of its condition. I went to the bookstore and did the very thing I sought to avoid: I bought a new copy.
