"""I couldn't put it down once I started reading. In fact, I read it twice. It's beautifully written and extremely interesting. It is unique because of the ethics component.""--Sharon Kobritz, Husson College ""There really isn't anything out there like this. It combines the practical with the critical in a way that I don't remember seeing very often. The authors pull together a lot of important critical and sociological literature that most basic textbooks ignore (at their peril).""--John Jenks, Dominican University"
