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:
Teaching epidemiology is a task that requires skills and knowledge. The overriding requirement is knowledge, which, should be combined with a clear teaching strategy and good pedagogic skills. The general advice is simple: if you are not an expert on a topic, try to enrich your background knowledge before you start teaching it. Teaching Epidemiology 2e helps you to locate the most important sources of knowledge you need to study before you start, by providing the
world expert teachers' advice on how best to structure teaching - a unique insight in to what has worked in their hands. The book will help you plan your own tailored teaching programme. The book is a guide to new teachers in the field at two levels, those teaching basic courses for undergraduates and those
teaching more advanced courses for students at postgraduate level. Each chapter provides key concepts and a list of key references. Subject specific methodology and disease specific issues (from cancer to genetic epidemiology) are dealt with in detail. In this day and age no book is complete without a focussed chapter on the principles and practice of computer assisted learning. This new edition is published in collaboration with the International Association of Epidemiology (IEA) and the
European Programme in Epidemiology (EEPA).
This is an extremely useful book. It covers the appropriate mix of methodology and specific topics, and teachers at all levels will find plenty of material to help them to prepare or revise their courses or teaching sessions.
