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 by an international team of expert contributors, this unique global and authoritative survey explores in full but accessible detail the basic constructs and concepts of modern sport and exercise psychology and their practical application.
The book consists of 62 chapters, written by 144 contributors, deriving from 24 countries across the world. The chapters are arranged in nine cohesive sections: sport and exercise participants; the influence of environments on sport and exercise; motor skills; performance enhancement; building and leading teams; career, life skills and character development; health and well-being enhancement; clinical issues in sport psychology; and professional development and practice. Each chapter contains chapter summaries and objectives, learning aids, questions, exercises and references for further reading.
Its comprehensive scale and global reach make this volume an essential companion for students, instructors and researchers in sport science, sport and exercise psychology, psychology, and physical education. It will also prove invaluable for coaches and health education practitioners.
"This extensive collection of articles represents perhaps the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the sport and exercise literature available, with chapters addressing everything from the physiology of motor behavior, to performance enhancement, to motivational interventions with athletes. Moreover, this is the most truly international presentation of the field available, giving voice to perspectives from around the globe, and from top scholars in multiple disciplines. Whether one?s interest is in the basic science or applied practice of sport and exercise psychology, this is an essential volume." - Richard M. Ryan, Department of Clinical & Social Sciences in Psychology, University of Rochester, USA
"It is an impressive author list of top scholars in the various topics covered in the book? I think it is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and practitioners that provides the reader with up-to-date knowledge and practical guidelines about how-to do it." - Andreas Stenling (January 2016) Department of Psychology, Ume? University, Your companion in the sport and exercise psychology jungle: A comprehensive and learning-focused collection, idrottsforum.org
