Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Since almost everyone gives advice now and then, almost anyone might profit from Salacuse's insights into giving and receiving counsel. Comparing advice giving to the medical profession and relating modern advisers to the oracles of ancient Greece, Salacuse points out that there is more to advising than spouting off about how you'd handle someone else's affairs. Giving good advice requires some empathy between adviser and advisee. There also needs to be a clear understanding of when the advising process ends and precisely what constitutes a legitimate area for advice. Salacuse comes to his subject from a background of teaching judges, lawyers, business executives, diplomats, and others involved in professionally giving advice, and his book lays open the process and philosophy of advice for the nonprofessional. Its narrative flavor and anecdotes make it entertaining as well as educational. Mike Tribby

5.0 out of 5 stars Required Reading for Every Profession, September 28, 2007
By Jerome Fishkin (Walnut Creek CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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.
