Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
First published in 1987, this book brings together two renowned educators, Paulo Freire and Ira Shor, who describe their own experiences in liberating the classroom from its traditional constraints, including discussion of Freire's work in Guinea-Bissau and Shor's work in the USA. They demonstrate the effectiveness of dialogue in action as a practical means by which teachers and students can become active participants in the learning process.
The authors illuminate the problems of the educational system in relation to those of the larger society and argue for the pressing need to transform the classroom in both Third and First World contexts. They demonstrate how vital the teacher's role is in empowering students to think critically about themselves and their relation, not only to the classroom, but to society. For readers seeking a liberatory approach to education, these dialogues will be a revelation and a unique summary. For all those convinced of the need for transformation, this book shows the way.
