This approach enables the book to avoid an idealized and prescriptive approach by making clear that virtues vary between contexts and individuals, while at the same time clearly marking out qualities and characteristics of social work that are foundational to the development of practitioners and of the profession as a whole. It will be required reading for students on all BSc/BSW and MSc/MSW courses on professional ethics or preparation for practice"-- UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003003151 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
