makes me want to cry,

This review is from: Morality and the Professional Life: Values at Work (Paperback)
This book is so poorly written and wordy it makes me want to cry. I bought it as a requirement for a Proff. Ethics course, however I would not recommend any instructor or person ever try to read this book.
What a poor attempt at writing and editing. I would be ashamed if my name were listed on the cover. The authors are overly wordy, have bad sentence structure, and often make contradicting statements. I have to wonder how they even graduated highschool.

This review is from: Morality and the Professional Life: Values at Work (Paperback)
Too wordy, poorly written and poorly edited. Lots of careless spelling errors and sentence structure errors. The professor talked trash about this book, and was always making apologies for the authors' mistakes. Bottom line, I had to have it for class, but other than that, I wouldn't buy it again.
