Clearly the use of social media and other web-based resources are a vital part of a 21st century education. Dorothy Bollinger, Esq. and Dr. Merle Horowitz's new book, Cyberbullying and Social Media Within Educational Institutions, is a compelling and convincing text which reinforces the need for educators, parents, students, and community members to be vigilant in ensuring that students and faculty members are 'safe' both physically and psychologically in America's schools. The book provides a very convincing argument for ethical and appropriate Internet use as well as offering a wealth of quality resources for educators. This is a must read for today's educational professionals. The case studies provide real time and life examples of our need to be vigilant to protect our students and staff members. I encourage my colleagues to inculcate the work of Merle Horowitz and Dorothy Bollinger.--Amy F. Sichel, Ph.D., Superintendent of Schools, Abington, Pennsylvania, Past-President of AASA, Alexandria, Virginia
