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:
The Psychology of Weather provides an accessible and up to date account of how humans interact with the weather. Beginning with an exploration of why humans are so fascinated by the weather, the book introduces ideas about weather watchers, extreme occurrences of weather, and how the media portrays different weather events. The book also provides a fascinating insight into how the weather can affect our mood and behaviour; its role in mental disorders and phobias such as SAD and Brontophobia, as well as how it can impact our consumer choices and reasoning behaviour.
MoreLong description:
Do you feel happier on a sunny day? Are you afraid of thunderstorms? Are you dreaming of a White Christmas?
The Psychology of Weather explores our relationship with the weather, and how it can affect our mood, behaviour, and lifestyle. The book sheds light on our preoccupation with this natural phenomenon, providing insights into how the weather on the day we were born can directly affect our intelligence and personality, and explore such surprising findings that suicide rates peak in the spring and summer.
When the weather affects everything from our buying behaviour, to the jobs we do, The Psychology of Weather shows us that understanding and appreciating the weather can improve our well-being and contribute to human survival.
