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:
"
This open access book addresses sustainability education in garden-based learning settings with biological and cultural diversity as its central themes. It provides scientific background knowledge to understand biological diversity and its functional roles in ecosystems as well as didactic approaches to sensitize students for challenges related to biodiversity loss or preservation, respectively, and to further their environmental consciousness. It also addresses biodiversity education in a broader sense by discussing issues that include economic, political, cultural and ethical aspects.
This book supports teachers of all educational levels as well as pedagogues involved in non-formal training in developing concepts and learning environments for biodiversity education in garden-based learning settings and, therefore, it is of great benefit for school teachers and university lecturers working with their students in a school garden or close-to nature designed school areas. Likewise, teacher mentors and trainers at universities, school leaders and policymakers responsible for the laying-out of school grounds can benefit from the information compiled in this volume.
