    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 book focuses on the curricular life of teachers at one high school, and features work by nine of those teachers from a variety of fields who have pursued doctoral degrees and remained at the school. These colleagues have helped produce a staff of "teacher students" across the campus, people who are committed to teaching and also committed to learning, to approaching life and the world as something to study, to recognizing that being students ourselves is an excellent way to guide the students in our classrooms. The authors in this book explore the ways they live in a "liminal," or "between" space in the high school-not quite a high school teacher, not quite a professor, but a "liminal scholar" who can participate effectively in multiple curricular spaces, and encourage conversation and understanding across those spaces.

    So many people in education talk about "life-long learning," and the people in this book exemplify that idea.
