If the quandary of bullying has baffled you, this invigorating book is a must read! The editor's creativity allowed him to cover every aspect of bullying (school, prison, cyberspace, etc). The information will keep you reading and I highly recommend this book. -- Norma Jean Frank, Southern University and A&M College There are several fine books on the topic of bullying, however I am moved by Dr. Ashraf Esmail book, Alleviating Bullying: Conquering the Challenges of Violent Crimes. The editor reflects on the horrifying truth about bullying that exists in our society.
