For teachers, administrators, researchers, lawyers, advocates, policy makers, and those involved in technology, Shariff (education, McGill U., Canada) and Churchill, a writing instructor and research assistant for the International Project on Cyber-bullying at McGill U., assemble 11 essays that address the issues of cyberbullying and internet safety. Researchers and program directors working in education, children's services, communication, business studies, and child development around the world place less emphasis on acts of cyberbullying and specific behaviors and stress the broader social, legal, ethical, policy-making, and pedagogical concerns. They dispel common myths and discuss the roles and responsibilities of educators, child safety organizations, policy makers, and others; introduce the ways researchers conceptualize cyberbullying, with exploration of children's behaviors as well as systemic influences on them; review the legal considerations and communication rights relating to freedom of expression, privacy, and supervisory responsibilities; and address intervention programs designed to build safer communities. They aim to promote responsible and ethically acceptable forms of communication, interaction, and relationships relating to technology. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
