Practicing Feminist Ethics in Psychology is a remarkable collection of well-written chapters that draw on women's experience in expanding the conversation on ethics and psychology. Feminist ethics build on such concept as attention, responsiveness, affect, and care and such interpersonal virtues as respectfulness and trustworthiness. They are concerned with the analysis of power, social justice, elimination of all forms of oppressive domination, and cultivation of moral sentiments. These chapters treat an impressive array of controversial topics - for example, recovered memories, cyberethics, pedagogical dilemmas, self disclosure in therapy, deception research, and the role of feminist psychologists as experts in legal cases - and the treatment is impressively evenhanded and carefully researched.  Without sacrificing a feminist perspective (and more than one such perspective is presented here), each author makes a commendable effort to present and understand the opposing views. The criticism offered is both astute and constructive. This volume is a timely and accessible contribution to feminist theory, ethics, and psychology.
