Clinical Counseling by Janice E. Rice (U.S.) 4 Stars
September 10, 2008
I am working on a school guidance master's degree and this book explains the different theries of counseling better than any of the other texts that I have read for my course work.

User friendly. One textbook you're liable to keep. by Rocco B. Rubino (Ohio) 5 Stars
January 16, 2003
Interviewing textbooks are notoriously dry and mechanical. I can count using the fingers of one hand the number of books I have read on the subject that are worth their weight in cotton candy. This work by the Sommers-Flanagan duo represents an excellent addition to the instructional literature on the fine art of interviewing. They use an wonderful blend of humor, humanity, sound advice and counsel, and theory. Highly recommended.
