The book ‘Corporal Punishment in Schools’ is an eye opener for all dealing with children in schools. The subject corporal punishment touches one and all who deal with education. The book very vividly describes and defines with concrete examples concerning, corporal punishment. The author has awakened the sensitivity towards a subject which needs to be dealt with in an emergent way. As an educationist I recommend every school to procure – discuss and follow the content of this wonderful and worthwhile book.
