Section Two is an introduction to The New School Experience, as it offers a review of the work and books of Roy Andersen.

Memoir depends on recollection--not only the particulars of experience, but the emotions, reflections, and even the daydreams elicited. Bob Zumwalt uses memory and imagination to tell the poignant, the fanciful, and the humorous moments of his life. From a bashful young lad in small town Central Texas to world-traveling chemical engineer, Zumwalt shares the rich, (and sometimes pathetic) events of his life with a homespun quirkiness that leaves the reader wondering: Is that fact or fiction? The forty-five stories in this collection cover growing up, dealing with girls, getting...

This is the story about the glory and agony of Growing Up Weird, having a patchwork childhood spanning three continents with airplane flights and the struggle of adjusting to restrooms in foreign cultures.

Along with the odd people come tales of strange...

Originally published in 1991, this book is about bullying and victimisation in children and young people, and ways of dealing with it. With the exception of Chapter 13 which is related to experiences of bullying within the borstal system, superseded by Youth Custody and more recently the Unified Custodial Sentence, it is about bullying in schools.
