'A must-have reference for every professional who deals in the grey area of deciding what is right and what is wrong. Johnson and Ridley provide a handy resource for the novice as well as the seasoned professional.' - Aine Donovan, Executive Director, Ethics Institute, Dartmouth College 'While we would all say we want to be ethical leaders, we are often uncertain about exactly what it means to be ethical, and how we can take clear positive steps in a gray world. "Elements of Ethics" is an excellent tool for helping us sort out these important issues. We learn best through stories and this book provides many real-world stories to outline the ethical challenges in which we find ourselves. I highly recommend reading this book.' - Michael J. Duncan, Chief Executive Officer, Columbia Doctors, The Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University 'This book represents a practical approach to ethical principles and practices in various professions.

The authors write in a clear style, using a number of cases to illustrate key themes in each chapter. It is clear that Drs. Johnson and Ridley have drawn upon their experiences and wisdom in creating a brief and useful book. They have identified many ethical dilemmas and provide thoughtful discussions of ways to practice both ethically and effectively.' - Gerald Corey, Ed.D., Diplomate in Counseling Psychology, ABPP Professor Emeritus of Human Services, California State University at Fullerton   'While the book mainly concentrates on professional ethics, many of the dilemnas it describes will be familiar to business ethics practitioners.  It is particularly enlightening for instance, on the prevailing culture that relies on the phrases 'it is within the rules' and 'I did nothing wrong'.
