"The editors are to be commended for this book’s breadth, depth, and clarity. They engaged experts to freshly address critically important topics not only to the profession’s relevance in society today but to those whom we seek to serve. They enlighten and challenge readers using proven advocacy strategies for social justice while raising aspirations from merely fixing those in need to servant leadership in promoting wellness and human dignity across the life span. This is not a book to sell at the end of the term. It’s a keeper for beginners and seasoned professionals alike." — Thomas J. Sweeney, PhD, professor emeritus, The Ohio University, founding chair, CACREP, and past president, ACA, ACES, and CSI
