LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The reader will learn a philosophical framework in Part 1 and work through cases in Part 2.

It builds a theory of counseling virtues, and then uses the theory as a basis for analyzing cases. It considers the codes of ethics of the American Counseling Assocation, the American Psychological Association, the National Association of Social Workers, the National Organization for Human Service Education, and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.
