In this tart, tautly written, hilarjously funny insider look at the restaurant business, Trevor White offers an impassioned, unbiased exposé of the world of dining out. From the most fashionable tables in New York, London, and Paris to local fast-food chains, he takes us behind the scenes and demonstrates that all too often we are being conned or cowed by overrated, egomaniacal chefs, pretentious waiters, and self-important critics, whose cursory evaluations and often prejudiced reviews can sound the death knell of a worthy eatery. A scathing attack on gourment dogma, White's defiantly populist critique of today's restaurant culture redefines the dining room as a place in which people have the right to be satisfied rather than intimidated. Included, too, is a fascibating conversation between celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain and the author, where both reveal their respective viewpoints on the culinary world. Book jacket.
Many counselors learn about ethics in graduate school by applying formal, step-by-step ethical decision-making models that require counselors to be aware of their values and refrain from imposing personal values that might harm clients. However, in the real world, counselors often make split-second ethical decisions based upon personal values. Values and Ethics in Counseling illustrates the ways in which ethical decisions are values—but more than that, it guides counselors through the process of examining their own values and analyzing how these values impact ethical decision making. Each chapter presents ethical decision making as what it is: a very personal, values-laden process, one that is most effectively illustrated through the real-life stories of counselors at various stages of professional development—from interns to seasoned clinicians—who made value-based decisions. Each story is followed by commentary from the author as well as analysis from the editors to contextualize the material and encourage reflection.
