“This book is the ‘go-to’ ethics book for our field of applied behavior analysis. Bailey and Burch handle the universe of ethics with a perfect touch. Ranging from formal presentation of ethical requirements, to real-life examples that all readers will relate to, this book will raise the awareness of ethics and ethical conduct, which in turn will increase the chances that the clients who we serve will be treated humanely and safely.”―Thomas Zane, PhD, BCBA-D, Institute for Behavioral Studies, Endicott College.

“Bailey and Burch bring clarity to the BACB Professional and Ethical Compliance Code through cogent discussion of each element and thoughtful consideration of the myriad issues facing practicing behavior analysts. Practitioners of all levels will find valuable insight from numerous examples of real-life ethical dilemmas.”―Dorothea C. Lerman, PhD, BCBA-D, University of Houston, Clear Lake.

"What a great new edition... There is enough new content to make it feel like a 'new' read, even for those who have read the previous editions. At the same time this edition stays true to the familiar story-telling voice that Bailey and Burch use to make ethics compelling to those, new and old to the field. Navigating the field and the multitude of ethical dilemmas facing practitioners can be very isolating, and having the Bailey and Burch text helps alleviate it when you realize that there are behavior analysts out there questioning, thinking, and resolving some of these dilemmas for you. Thank you Bailey and Burch, can't wait for the next edition!" --Myra-Jade Lui, BCBA
