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:
Examines the nature of Rheumatoid Arthritis & the role of health care professionals in influencing an individual's behavior and understanding of RA. Invaluable for sufferers, carers and health professionals involved in treatment.
MoreLong description:
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a major cause of disability affecting about 1% of the population. Although much effort has been expended on research into the causes and cures of RA, little progress has been made. The focus of treatment in RA is on reducing the disabling consequences of the disease and controlling the symptoms.
Understanding Rheumatoid Arthritis examines the nature of RA and its symptoms of pain and stiffness. The role of health care professionals and the individual's encounters with the doctor are important to understand as these experiences influence the individual's behaviour and understanding of their RA.
This book will be an invaluable aid to the considerable number of people who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, their families, carers and all health professionals involved in its treatment.
`Provides a well-integrated overview of familiar studies of lay experiences and understandings of RA' Sociology of Health and Illness
'Students enrolled on undergraduate, postgraduate and professional courses will find this text a valuable resource that summarizes disease-related psychological and social aspects of a painful, disabling condition. It will be particularly useful for those wishing to embark on a research project as part of professional development or a degree course.' - Psychology, Health and Medicine
