This book definitely had good, relevant information to it. The book was well structured and the information well presented. However, my point of contention is some of these case example stories where there is an "ethical dilemma." Maybe it's just me and maybe I have a strong sense of professional/personal ethics but with a lot of these stories I knew exactly what I would do in that situation and the "dilemma" presented was almost laughable.

not a bad book but kinda hard to keep interested.
