Dr. Jodi Halpern has written a remarkable book articulating a view of clinical empathy that has practical and philosophical implications for all helping professionals, as well as for normative and relational ethics within the helping professions. Dr. Halpern first carefully deconstructs a detached insight view of empathy (an intellectualist view) and empathy as sympathetic merger between two persons.
