If you're a clinical social worker, you should own this book. Chances are, it'll be assigned to you at some point in your degree program anyway. Might as well buy it to have it on-hand for when that happens. Plus, you'll need it to study for your licensure exam. Buy it, read it, enjoy it, and learn from it.
