Summary "The book describes childhood bullying from the vantage point of those victims, bullies, and bystanders who are now adults ... discusses how lives have been changed, and explores the range of reactions adults exhibit. The research gathered for this book, through interviews with over 800 people, points out that even adult decision-making is often altered by the victimization they experience as children at the hands of peers, siblings, parents, or educators."--Publisher description.
