    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:

    This compilation consists of seven chapters, each dealing with a particular recent advancement in the field of sociology. The first chapter looks at fashion and investigates three pre-modern empires to determine whether these societies incorporated a system of fashion or proto-fashion. The second chapter focuses on sexual harassment in the hospitality industry and attempts to explain the phenomenon as well as offer recommendations from experts for deterring the problem. The third chapter includes a study that examines how supportive parent-child attachment and at-risk status of female youths contribute to positive self-concept and delinquency. Chapter Four discusses the ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a specific focus on its impact on human development in developing countries. In Chapter Five, the authors compare the attitudes of students from China, Russia, India, and the United States regarding the issue of doping in sports. Chapter Six describes the development of distributive justice theories in the social sciences from the early 1960s until present times. Finally, Chapter Seven provides a systematic summary of the characteristics and key findings of social support research in online health communities.
