It prompts and provokes readers to recognize, to analyze, to reflect upon, and to respond to the range of commonplace ethical concerns that arise in community mental health care practice.

Recenzje

From the reviews:
"[...]not just another ordinary textbook on ethics. Those looking for a stimulating read and a wonderful resource [...] will be well served [...] This book has quite a bit of horsepower under the hood. There are many contributions by and references to contemporary public and community mental health heavyweights. Each chapter is exceptionally well-referenced[...] This is reliable information that could be readily adapted for policy development and staff training within an agency[...] Ethics in Community Mental Health Care would be excellent for a seminar for residents interested in community psychiatry. It has great potential for stimulating intellectual interest in current issues in community psychiatry that exceed traditional didactics."
(Anita Everett, MD in Psychiatric Services, 54:1 (January 2003)
