Core text for Introduction to Counseling/Psychotherapy, or for the survey course in Counseling. Once a profession dedicated to guiding people to make wise decisions, counseling has evolved into a dynamic, multidimensional discipline-a comprehensive profession. This text encompasses all that counseling is today-addressing the history of counseling and the theory behind its practice; exploring the multicultural, ethical, legal environments in which counselors operate; and examining the variety of skills today's counselors are expected to exhibit. In addition, six chapters are dedicated to specific populations with whom counselors work and professional arenas in which they practice.

Seller's Description:
Good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used textbooks may not include companion materials such as access codes, etc. May have some wear or writing/highlighting. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
They sent me the internationally adapted version aimed for students in India. I am in the US, so it's not quite relevant to me. Also, the book they sent me had a completely different ISBN than the one that is advertised here, so please be aware that this is not the actual textbook you are ordering. The good thing is, you can at least return it! But if you actually want the 8th edition of Counseling: A Comprehensive Profession by Samuel T. Gladding, consider buying elsewhere. I got my replacement copy from Amazon and it was a good experience.

Too old
I thought I was getting an edition comparable to what I needed. Instead I got an edition that was about 4 editions back from the 1970s. Thankfully, quite a bit of the information is the same (I guess psychology hasn't changed too too much in 35+ years) but it lacked updates that I needed for class. There were 2 totally new chapters and some social issues are very different.
