Description
Book SynopsisEthics in Speech and Language Therapy is a key text for students, practitioners and managers alike. The demands of practice, legislation, registration and the recognition of competencies all point to the need for speech and language therapists to be explicitly educated about ethics.
Trade Review"This is really thought-provoking - far from a dry, dull book about ethical theories and principles . . . this book is an excellent resource for helping us think more deeply about our work-related ethical challenges." (Speech & Language Therapy in Practice, 1 July 2011)
