Right Use of Power

This is an outstanding resource guide. It is comprehensive, clear, inspirational, and practical. A great contribution to a shift in ethics education. Angeles Arrien, Ph.D., author of The Four-Fold Way I know of nothing quite like this book. It offers a wealth of useful, exquisitely organized information; a valuable resource which both informs and delights. On the subject of ethics, it can't be topped. Ron Kurtz, author of Body Centered Psychotherapy: The Hakomi Method Cedar Barstow elevates the entire discussion of ethical issues far above a philosophy of avoiding legal issues, to a philosophy of service with highest regard for humanity and the processes that facilitate a higher moral ground. Laura Dodson, M.S.W., Ph.D., author of Virginia Satir: Her Life and Circle of Influence Cedar Barstow has writtent he best book I've seen on the ethics, dangers, and potentials inherent within helping relationships. This is the book I wish I had read when I was first training as a psychotherapist. Bill Plotkin, author of Soulcraft: Crossing into the Mysteries of Nature and Psyche Right Relations is a concept that ought to be foundational for living in the interdependent web of world community. Wise and accountable use of power is central to Right Relationsh. Cedar beautifully invites and instructs us in this journey that is both personal and internal as well as communal. Rev.
