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:
Photography-Based Approaches in Health Research: Techniques and Applications is a groundbreaking guide designed to help health researchers and research students navigate the innovative world of photography-based research methods in healthcare. This practical resource capitalizes on the advantages of photographic techniques over traditional methods and provides a structured framework currently lacking in healthcare research.
In this comprehensive book, readers will gain insight into a variety of photography-based methodologies such as photo-elicitation, photovoice, visual ethnography, photographic collage, and digital storytelling. This resource includes an in-depth discussion of the interrelatedness between photography and phenomenology in health research, offering a holistic context with historical aspects and exploring the future of photography-based research in the era of artificial intelligence and virtual reality. Readers will benefit from case studies and examples from the author's own experience in mental health research, enhancing the book's authenticity and real-world applicability. The final chapter allows readers to apply their new knowledge through exercises and a research proposal template.
Ideal for health researchers and students, this book delivers clear guidance for planning, designing, and conducting health research using photography. It offers practical tools for formulating research questions, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings that integrate both visual and textual data. The added complexity of ethical considerations in using photography is addressed in a dedicated chapter.
