Biography
Britney G Brinkman is Assistant Professor of Counseling Psychology at Chatham University, USA.
"Although there are some books that begin to talk about issues related to bullying, there are few texts that directly take on bullying as a social justice issue. This book is on the cutting edge of the field and will help guide much of the content for anti-bullying programming in schools, and create school and social policy that is lacking in this area." -Toni Zimmerman, Colorado State University, USA
"Brinkman provides a brief, well-organized, and timely book on a fairly new topic. Parents and educators who are willing to tackle this controversial topic, especially as it applies to sexual identity-based bullying, will find it very useful. Its brevity makes it easy to read." - Stephen A. Truhon, PsycCRITIQUES
