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.

Beginning in 1976 deaths from asthma in New Zealand rose suddenly and dramatically, tripling by 1979. ""Adverse Reactions"" tells the controversial and gripping story of how a group of young researchers, of whom the author was one, discovered that the asthma drug fenoterol was a cause of this alarming epidemic. Facing powerful pressures and hostile opposition from conservative medical opinion and from the drug industry, they persisted and finally saw their conclusions accepted and the death rate falling. Neil Pearce recalls the period 1988-90, the years of this struggle, as a personal story but he also draws attention to many issues about drug safety in New Zealand and internationally and about the contest between money and science in medical research. The foreword is written by Prime Minister Helen Clark, who was Minister of Health at the time of the controversy.
