Synopsis
"Bullying in Schools" discusses bully/victim problems in school and suggests effective ways of counteracting and preventing such problems. On the basis of the author's large-scale studies in other countries, it is known that bullying is a serious problem in all societies that have been studied so far, and that more than 15% of the school population in primary and secondary/junior high schools are involved, either as bullies or victims. This book presents the facts about bullying - its causes and consequences. It is also significant in its examination of methods of effectively counteracting bullying at school. For the first time, there is available an intervention programme that has been scientifically evaluated in extensive research. The results are remarkable: a reduction of bully/victim problems by 50% or more; a considerable drop in antisocial behaviour such as vandalism, theft, drunkenness and truancy; and clear improvements with regard to the "social climate" of the classroom and student satisfaction with school life. The book gives lots of practical advice to school principals, teachers and parents on implementing a "whole school approach to bullying", and also contains a guide to help teachers and parents recognize if a child is being victimized or bullies others.

Revue de presse
"The problem of school bullying is one of growing dimensions and is of tremendous concern to teachers, parents, and many of the children themselves. Professor Olweus is without question the world′s leading authority on the topic. His book is a succinct yet accurate and thorough statement of the problem and what educators and parents can do to alleviate it. It will be invaluable to its intended readership." Professor David G. Perry, Florida Atlantic University.
"Olweus′s book provides evidence that his programme of intervention has encouraging results where it has been applied, leading to significant and sustained reductions in direct and indirect bullying. This should encourage schools and authorities to study the method described and the valuable suggestions made. There is a useful and wide–ranging reference list of works on bullying and aggression." Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health
"Dr Olweus′ program, which is in place at 42 Norwegian schools, is the first program against bully/victim problems to be scrutinized by scientific research... The program has been so successful that it is now being set up in several other countries including the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, and the United States. For Dr Olweus... has studied the problem of bullying for 20 years... Dr Olweus′ intervention program is described in detail in his book Bullying at School." Pediatric News
