    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:

    Accidents, workplace pressures, deadlines. We are assaulted each day by many forms of stress ranging from the routine trials of life to the unexpected trauma of fires and other disasters. In Pressure Proof: A Guide to Performing Under Stress, Chief Thomas Dunne draws on his decades of experience with the New York City Fire Department to develop techniques for performing effectively in stressful situations.

    Topics covered include:

    • Decision making
    • Accepting and managing risks
    • Controlling your fear
    • Developing confidence
    • Mastering communication skills
    • And much more

    See how the decision-making process that happens on the fireground can work in all aspects of your work and personal life. Learn the tools that allow you to maintain a command presence and refocus from disabling fear to positive action in any challenging scenario.
