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 book introduces peer interventions (primarily peer education, peer counselling and peer support) for the positive promotion of health and wellbeing as alternative or parallel methods to traditional clinical processes for reaching hard-to-access populations. It is strongly evidence-based, with chapters discussing reviews of the evidence, followed by important papers with key messages for implementation. Furthermore, it describes implementation and evaluation procedures, both in resource-rich environments and in developing countries.
Key Features:
- Bridges the traditional gap between professional clinical advice and the "real world", reaching where professionals cannot go
- Brings together information about those interventions that are well evidenced
- Distils information about how to implement interventions for medical professionals and paraprofessionals and charitable agencies and researchers
- Presents a fine balance between research and implementation, with evidence-driven guidance
