    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:

    This is a short, practical textbook for both clinical medical students and clinicians/health workers who see patients with psychiatric problems in the course of their practice. As in previous editions, it emphasizes the assessment of psychiatric problems and focuses on their management in everyday clinical practice, giving advice on the management and referral of patients to specialist psychiatrists. This new edition also includes numerous tables, advanced information boxes, and
    case histories to make the book easy-to-use, and a new section on taking an evidence-based approach to psychiatry.
