When becoming the President of AATA in 1977 (before there was a central office) cost me 50% of my clinic job, independent contracting not only restored the lost income, but also provided me with more free time to devote to the organization. The author's directness and ethical clarity about the need for continuing supervision and thoughtful reflection should make this book a useful guide for clinicians at all stages of professional development.
