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:
Looks in depth at eight successful peer-run programs for adults with serious mental illnesses. The book grew out of a 1998 meeting that led off a nationwide study to assess not only the effectiveness of consumer-operated services programs (COSPs) but also their implications for the future of mental health care in the United States.
MoreLong description:
This is a book like no other. While it contains most all the knowledge one would need to develop successful peer programs, it also addresses the philosophy, values, and passion one needs to do it. The various examples of peer programs weave together to tell the larger story of how and why peer programs do work. - William A. Anthony, Director Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Boston University; ""On Our Own, Together is an important book providing us with an understanding of the philosophy, work and healing power of peer-run programs. Rising up from the lived experience of people diagnosed with major mental disorders, these peer programs have evolved over decades. Sally Clay and her co-authors teach us about the principles and practices that form the common ground for all these programs while also highlighting some of the differences between them."" - Patricia E. Deegan, Ph.D.
