Abstract:
School personnel and parents need guidance for comprehensively and thoroughly dealing with such an unacceptable behavior as cyberbullying. The reviewer of Cyberbullying and Cyberthreats, Dr. Russell Sabella, found it to be an "incredibly useful book" that covers the many angles and issues associated with this topic. What stands out most, he says, "is Willard's comprehensive coverage, illustrative examples, recommendations for practice, and practical resources."
