The pervasive cultural problem of bullying - in school, the media, politics, and more - is explored, as are practical tips for dealing with it and helping to create a caring social climate. Through stories from history and current events, readers will be inspired to take action to stop bullying in their communities. History and current events topics covered include: cases of bullying that have gone to court; how the media portray bullies; real-life stories of kids who have been bullied or acted as bullies; and, why leaders of countries are accused of bullying other leaders to get things done.
