Reviews

Demonstrating how empowering bystanders, and enlisting effective teacher support, combined with suggestions based on student-centered responses, and a profile of negative as well as positive responses parents may encounter when they confront school personnel about bullying, Bullying in Secondary Schools is strongly recommended and timely reading. -- Midwest Book Review, April 2004
