Three Men in a Boat: (to Say Nothing of the Dog) by Jerome Jerome

This new edition of Vital Information and Review Questions for the NCE, CPCE and State Counseling Exams sticks to the successful structure of the previous versions, each of which has demonstrated to be a valuable resource for anyone preparing for these difficult exams. Two new Discs have been added to this new edition, bringing the total to 20 audio CDs and over 20 hours of programming.

The material covered on the CDs is arranged into nine major areas, containing explanations of terms, concepts, and inter-relationships between subjects. Key definitions, theories and techniques are discussed, and appraisal, research, and evaluation methods are presented in an easily-understood format. The set also includes 325 tutorial questions, supplemented with additional information on all nine major areas of the National Counselor Examination. Two new CDs present Cutting Edge Ethics, an illumination of the huge changes from the past that were set forth by the ACA's 2005 Code of Ethics, and Ask Dr. Rosenthal, in which Dr. Rosenthal shares correspondence he has received from listeners who have contacted him with specific questions or asked for additional explanations of material.

Jerome, Jerome K.: - Jerome Klapka Jerome (1859 - 1927) was an English writer and humourist, best known for the comic travelogue Three Men in a Boat (1889). Other works include the essay collections Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow (1886) and Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow; Three Men on the Bummel, a sequel to Three Men in a Boat and several other novels. Jerome was inspired by his older sister Blandina's love for the theatre and he decided to try his hand at acting in 1877, under the stage name Harold Crichton. He joined a repertory troupe that produced plays on a shoestring budget, often drawing on the actors' own meager resources - Jerome was penniless at the time - to purchase costumes and props. After three years on the road with no evident success, the 21-year-old Jerome decided that he had enough of stage life and sought other occupations. He tried to become a journalist, writing essays, satires and short stories, but most of these were rejected. Over the next few years, he was a school teacher, a packer and a solicitor's clerk. Finally, in 1885, he had some success with On the Stage - and Off (1885), a comic memoir of his experiences with the acting troupe, followed by Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow (1886), a collection of humorous essays which had previously appeared in the newly founded magazine, Home Chimes, the same magazine that would later serialize Three Men in a Boat.
