With the growth of technology and its emerging role in crime and victimization, the field of criminology has already begun to experience numerous changes since the beginning of the twenty-first century. The birth of cybercrime victimization as both a social problem and an interest of academic researchers has led to a plethora of journal articles, books and research reports. In their book Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying, Sameer Hinduja and Justin W. Patchin focus on one of the more quickly emerging topics in cybercrime victimization - cyberbullying. As defined by the authors, cyberbullying is 'willful and repeated harm inflicted through the use of computers, cell phones, and other electronic devices' (p. 5). As the result of several extreme cases that have occurred since 2005, cyberbullying has become a popular issue that is frequently discussed by the mainstream media. To that end, Hinduja and Patchin's work is one that is both timely and important.
