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:
Now featuring a new author team and a new and expanded title, Anatomy and Physiology for Midwives and Perinatal Healthcare Professionals, 5th Edition, remains a core text for undergraduate and postgraduate education and is an ideal resource to support those working in maternity and perinatal care. This highly popular textbook presents reproductive anatomy and physiology in a manner which is ideal for those who are new to the subject or who desire a quick, well-illustrated review. Using an accessible, friendly writing style, it progresses from the founding principles of human structure and function through to conception, embryological and fetal development and growth, the maternal responses to the growing fetus, parturition, and the transition to neonatal life.
- Explains and contextualises the principles of reproductive A&P, acknowledging the importance of underlying research and integrating theory and practice
- Includes more than 200 illustrations that help to clarify complex anatomical, physiological, and clinical information
- Includes all-new reflective activities that help you apply concepts to clinical practice
- Provides learning objectives at the start of each chapter, more boxes that identify and highlight key topics, and a streamlined table of contents that improves reader accessibility
- Features new authorship and expertise in the areas of cell physiology, education, and research, particularly its clinical application to fertility and parturition
- Helps students, midwives, and other healthcare professionals expertly handle questions from increasingly well-informed parents-to-be
- Reflects current information from MBRRACE reports and the latest NICE guidance
- Suitable for all students of midwifery, as well as qualified midwives and related healthcare professionals who need a quick review or who are undertaking post-graduate study
