The volume is intended as a versatile study aide providing ethics guidance with each section serving as a stand-alone reference. This material is intended for students and practitioners of international social work and professional ethics."—Book News "This book provides a valuable commentary on this debate which it illustrates by including accounts of real-life cases from around the world life." - Richard Martin, Probation Journal 2012 "The editors have certainly done us a favour by bringing together so much rich material in one place. I confess that I have already used one of the cases in my teaching (to good effect I think) and I will be plundering the book for more inspiration in the future. I will also be recommending it to students – particularly those on post-qualifying courses… I also think that many will welcome the light that the cases and the commentaries throw on the difficult worlds that they work in." - Practice: Social Work in Action, June 2013
