Publication info: Choice 48.10 (Jun 2011): 1851.
Abstract (Abstract): As researchers in the field, the authors are able to provide a timely, up-to-date examination of cyber bullying. They observe that bullying has been around a long time but that rapid developments in communication technology have changed and expanded it. Although many are aware of the danger of online sexual predators, there is insufficient recognition of the consequences of online bullying of young people by young people.

As researchers in the field, the authors are able to provide a timely, up-to-date examination of cyber bullying. They observe that bullying has been around a long time but that rapid developments in communication technology have changed and expanded it. Although many are aware of the danger of online sexual predators, there is insufficient recognition of the consequences of online bullying of young people by young people. One of the problems is that most adults are not as sophisticated as "digital youth" and therefore not aware of the multiple avenues that cell phones, e-mail, instant messaging, text messaging, online gaming, and social networks offer bullies. Another problem: victims rarely report harassment because they fear doing so will lead to further bullying or will result in curtailment of their access to technology. The authors maintain a balanced, thoughtful tone as they discuss research and legal issues and offer advice for parents, schools, and students themselves. A final chapter looks at bullying of older adults. The authors are careful not to sensationalize the topic, but they do include sidebars presenting personal experiences that vividly demonstrate the hazards of uncontrolled bullying. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates; community and technical college students; faculty; professionals; general readers.-S. Sugarman, emerita, Bennington College
