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.

Short description:
This text is part of the Oxford Textbooks in Clinical psychology series, bringing together experts from both clinical psychology and psychiatry to write chapters on each of the major child and adolescent disorders, as defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the Mental Disorders. Mirroring the organization of the DSM-IV, it goes beyond that reference's mere listing of diagnostic criteria to provide the latest research on each disorder, assessement
strategies, and treatment recommendations. An ideal text for courses in child and adolescent psychopathology and in clinical psychology, it will also be an excellent reference for practitioners.
Long description:
In May of 1994, The American Psychiatric Association published DSM-IV, the most recent version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. DSM-IV is the primary diagnostic reference for mental health professionals in psychiatry, psychology, social work, and nursing. It provides brief descriptions of mental disorders in terms of their primary and associated features, age at onset, typical course, level of impairment, predisposing factors,
complications, prevalence, sex ratio, and familial pattern. And although DSM-IV is one of the primary training and reference tools for mental health professionals, its scope and utility are limited. It is designed to be a diagnostic manual and, therefore, contains little regarding treatment — the next step
after diagnosis. This reference/textbook will bring together experts from both clinical psychology and psychiatry to write chapters on each of the child and adolescent disorders. It will mirror the organization of the DSM-IV but go beyond a listing of diagnostic criteria, addressing what to do after the diagnosis is made. Each chapter will review the research on each disorder, offering a critique of the DSM-IV criteria, and will provide assessment strategies and treatment
recomendation.
