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.

MoreLong description:
Written to help international students write essays and reports for their English-language university courses, this key title covers the essentials needed to achieve academic writing success. An easy-to-follow course that builds writing confidence and can be used both in the classroom and for self-study, this second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to contain relevant examples, explanations and exercises.
Split into two key areas, the first part explains and demonstrates every stage of essay writing, from choosing the best sources, reading and note-making, through to referencing and proofreading. The second part explores key areas such as academic vocabulary and punctuation and is organised alphabetically for easy reference. A progress check at the end of each part allows students to assess their learning. All units are fully cross-referenced, and a complete set of answers to the practice exercises is included. There is also additional online support material available including a full set of teaching notes, more challenging exercises, revision material and links to other sources as well as interactive quizzes and videos to help develop knowledge. Additional features of the book include:
- Use of authentic academic texts from a wide range of disciplines
- Designed for self-study as well as classroom use
- Useful at both undergraduate and postgraduate level
- Fully updated, with sections on using electronic sources
All international students wanting to maximise their academic potential will find this practical, concise and easy-to-use book an invaluable guide to writing in English for their degree courses.
?This book offers an accessible and coherent guide to academic writing, with a clear and well-structured layout that makes it easy to follow. Although it is primarily aimed at international students, it holds significant value for non-international students as well, since academic writing remains a common weakness and can be the deciding factor between passing and failing. The inclusion of exercises provides useful opportunities to test learning and track progress, and one of the book?s strengths is its flexibility?readers can dip in and out of specific sections according to their immediate needs.?
