商品簡介
Brant focuses on state law but includes federal statutes and policies when necessary, updating recent case law and interpretations for this edition. He focuses on the needs of mental health professionals and their interactions with clients, starting by describing the licensure and regulation of professionals from psychiatrists and psychiatric nurses to social workers, school counselors, therapists and hypnotists. He describes business law as it applies to individual practice and other working situations, limitations and liabilities in practice, legal issues of families and juveniles, civil and criminal matters, voluntary and involuntary receipt of state services, and miscellaneous civil matters such as competency to vote or sign a will. The result is both accessible and comprehensive. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
