The Handbook of Bullying in Schools provides a comprehensive
review and analysis of what is known about the worldwide bullying
phenomena. It is the first volume to systematically review and
integrate what is known about how cultural and regional issues
affect bullying behaviour and its prevention.
Key features include the following:
- Comprehensive - forty-one chapters bring together conceptual,
methodological, and preventive findings from this loosely coupled
field of study, thereby providing a long-needed centerpiece around
which the field can continue to grow in an organized and
interdisciplinary manner.
- International Focus - approximately forty-percent of the
chapters deal with bullying assessment, prevention, and
intervention efforts outside the USA.
- Chapter Structure - to provide continuity, chapter authors
follow a common chapter structure: overview, conceptual
foundations, specific issues or programs, and a review of current
research and future research needs.
- Implications for Practice - a critical component of each
chapter is a summary table outlining practical applications of the
foregoing research.
- Expertise - the editors and contributors include leading
researchers, teachers, and authors in the bullying field, most of
whom are deeply connected to organizations studying bullying around
the world.
