Part I. The Historical and Personal Context of the School Shootings -- Chapter 1. The History of School Shootings -- Chapter 2. What are Some of the Commonalties of the School Shootings? -- Part II. Examining Factors that Could Contribute to Solutions -- Chapter 3. Gun Control -- Chapter 4. The Importance of Family Factors -- Chapter 5. Character Education Including an Emphasis on Love and Anger Management -- Chapter 6. Social Media, the Entertainment Industry, and the News Media -- Chapter 7.

The number of school shootings has skyrocketed recently not only in the United States but also in many other countries. This was one of the reasons why William Jeynes set out to write this illuminating book, in which he provides policy makers, school leaders, teachers and other interested individuals with valuable insights, research data and facts to reflect upon. It is to the great merit of William Jeynes that he proofed character education as well as parental engagement to be highly effective tools to improve schools in the 21st century. Schools need to focus more on character and parental engagement and less on testing. This book is an incredibly valuable contribution and deserves to be taken very seriously. Roland Bernhard, Professor of History and Civics Education, University of Vienna School shootings have arguably become one of the most pressing concerns facing the American education system. While officials have proposed different solutions to the problem, few have attempted to address the multiple factors contributing to school shootings. In Reducing School Shootings, William Jeynes offers a much-needed comprehensive approach to addressing the problem that is grounded in many years of scholarly analysis and evidence. Scholars and policymakers interested in substantive solutions that go beyond single policy prescriptions for alleviating school shootings will learn a great deal from this book. Daniel Hamlin, Professor of Education Policy, University of Oklahoma Dr. Jeynes bravely uncovers the complex psycho-social dynamics that have long contributed to the global-wide incidence of school Shootings. The evidence is presented objectively and pinpoints the contributions of family dysfunction, mental illness, addiction, and the overall desensitization of violence wrought in the vacuum of postmodern culture. The commonalities and context for school shootings were delivered succinctly but Dr. Jeynes warns against an oversimplification of the problem and provides comprehensive strategies for preventative and legislative change that will lead to a more hopeful future. Dr. Robert Grand, Executive Director, The Family Afterward Resource Center, Metro Los Angeles, California.
