Features: This book is a classic in the field of social work ethics with a broad influence in various countries worldwide. It not only explores the theoretical orientations and meanings of ethical decision-making but also, in a pragmatic spirit, delves into how to apply the values advocated in professional social work ethics to make decisions involving ethical issues. The book addresses core issues and emerging trends in social work practice, such as confidentiality, client self-determination, professional relationships, and private practice.
