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.

MoreLong description:
This comprehensive introduction to lifespan nutrition provides a complete and evidence-based understanding of the priorities for the health and well-being of individuals, communities, and populations across different countries and regions around the world.
Considering growth and development—physiological, cognitive, psychological, and social—across each of the key life stages, the book explores the relationship between food, health, and well-being, highlighting how optimal growth and development require optimal nutrition. Specific physical and mental health concerns are addressed throughout, from conception through to late adulthood, with separate chapters focusing on a range of regional perspectives, including Asia, the Americas, the Middle East, Oceania, the Pacific Islands, Africa and the Caribbean, and Europe.
Also examining key social and political issues such as food security and food sustainability, and featuring illuminating case studies and end-of-chapter questions, this accessible text will be essential reading for students of nutrition, dietetics, or public health, as well as practitioners working in these areas.
