--Robert N. Bellah, professor of sociology, emeritus, University of California at Berkeley and coauthor, Habits of the Heart and The Good Society
"Writing in the tradition of social critics as distinctive as
Emile Durkheim, William Morris, and John Dewey, and drawing on
recent research on the mastery of complex bodies of knowledge and
traditions of practice in professional education, William Sullivan
in Work and Integrity has given us a indispensable
interpretation of the meaning of work for our time."
--Bruce Jennings, senior research scholar, The Hastings Center
"The mission of professional training is typically understood as
developing expertise. In Work and Integrity, William
Sullivan persuasively shows that those who educate the next
generation of professionals should also be nurturing an ethic of
‘civic professionalism,’ an understanding that the
professions have a vital public responsibility. This is valuable,
eye-opening reading for anyone who teaches—or depends on the
professionalism of—professionals."
--David L. Kirp, professor, Goldman School of Public Policy,
University of California at Berkeley
"Work and Integrity provides an invaluable lens for
understanding the role of professions in American society. By
placing the contemporary challenges of professionals in broader
historical and social context, William Sullivan offers a highly
insightful analysis of how best to promote their highest ethical
aspirations."
--Deborah Rhode, Ernest W. McFarland Professor of Law, Stanford
