    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:

    Bridging the Gap: Corrosion Science For Heritage Contexts explores the decision-making processes for preserving heritage metals while also examining the collaborative, interdisciplinary relationships that underpin them. Through themed chapters, the book is designed to develop and strengthen collaboration between these three groups of professionals, creating a synergy that benefits research and practice for the preservation of heritage metals. It builds an overview of metals conservation across a broad range of heritage contexts, from indoor museum displays to fixed outdoor structures and moving objects.

    Researchers and practitioners provide critical insights into corrosion problems within heritage, current corrosion mitigation procedures, and the evidence supporting best practice guidance. The book will be a valuable reference resource for corrosion and corrosion protection scientists, heritage preservation scientists, conservation practitioners, and students studying preservation of cultural objects.
