Dignity Matters

Psychoanalytic and Psychosocial Perspectives

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores an ethical value central to all mental health professions. Although "dignity" appears near the beginning of many codes of ethics, it has been largely unexamined in the professional literature. Potter Stewart famously declared about pornography that we can't define it but we know it when we see it. Likewise with dignity.
