Required Reading for Every Profession

Among my clients are new lawyers. I give a copy of this book to each one of them. I encourage them to read it before accepting the first client. Every other professional should do so -- doctors, teachers, social workers -- anyone who makes a living by giving advice to other people. This book raises issues we should consider before giving advice, and issues we should consider while giving advice. It spans all the occupations. I don't know of any other book like it.
