Ralph Dolgoff is a professor and has served as dean of the University of Maryland School of Social Work, as associate dean and acting dean at Adelphi University, and as senior program specialist at the CSWE. He is co-author of UNDERSTANDING SOCIAL WELFARE: A SEARCH FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE, Seventh Edition (Allyn & Bacon, 2007), and is author of AN INTRODUCTION TO SUPERVISORY PRACTICE IN HUMAN SERVICES (Pearson, 2005).
"A thorough knowledge of ethics and the application of ethical behavior is a fundamental aspect of all social work practice, regardless of setting. This book is a valuable resource that covers this difficult and complex topic in a comprehensive and understandable manner. It tackles difficult practice issues in a realistic manner and forces the reader, through its abundant use of case examples and exercises at the end of each chapter, to examine his or her values and philosophical approach to practice."
"It informs the reader of the codes of ethics for social work practice and addresses in depth the application of social work values and ethics in practice dilemmas. The text includes guidelines prod the reader to become involved in thinking about practice issues and actions. It is thorough, has numerous excellent examples with guides to what to consider with each."
"I would describe this manuscript as provocative, thoughtful, filled with many wonderful exemplars. The primary strength is that it addresses many of the situations, which students and colleagues have, and will, find. It is a terrific stepping stone to start a dialogue with colleagues and students."
