I presently use this book as a text for a course for Imaging Systems students. They have found it easy to read and informative. While it dwells on the legal aspects quite heavily, it still delves into the personal aspects of ethical issues which might be encountered by imaging professionals.

As a radiography student, this is an easy read. Does what it's suppose to on educating us with these issues. I especially like how terminology/definitions are on the side margin's for quick references in preparations for pop quizzes.

My rental had loose pages and was damaged alot...but I dont care ad long as i dont have to pay for those samages...i could still read everything, and do my hw so i am happy.
