    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:

    ***Winner of a 2021 APEX Award for Publication Excellence***


    Written by leading social psychologists with expertise in leadership, health and emergency behaviour – who have also played an important role in advising governments on COVID-19 – this book provides a broad but integrated analysis of the psychology of COVID-19

    It explores the response to COVID-19 through the lens of social identity theory, drawing from insights provided by four decades of research. Starting from the premise that an effective response to the pandemic depends upon people coming together and supporting each other as members of a common community, the book helps us to understand emerging processes related to social (dis)connectedness, collective behaviour and the societal effects of COVID-19. In this it shows how psychological theory can help us better understand, and respond to, the events shaping the world in 2020. 

    Considering key topics such as:

    • Leadership
    • Communication
    • Risk perception
    • Social isolation
    • Mental health
    • Inequality
    • Misinformation
    • Prejudice and racism
    • Behaviour change
    • Social Disorder

    This book offers the foundation on which future analysis, intervention and policy can be built.

    We are proud to support the research into Covid-19 and are delighted to offer the finalised eBook for free, available from all major eBook retailers, including Amazon, Kobo, Ebooks.com and Google.  For those who prefer print, it is possible to purchase a paperback version.

    All Royalties from this book will be donated to charity.
