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:
A concise, accessible and essential guide to the diagnosis, management and prevention of perinatal infections.
MoreLong description:
Congenital and perinatal infections remain a stubborn and major cause of morbidity and mortality in infants throughout the world. This concise, accessible account provides an essential guide to the diagnosis, management and prevention of these infections. The first three chapters underline how and why infections during this critical period can be so devastating. The main section of the book focuses on individual infections, and emphasises effective intervention based on the very latest knowledge and techniques. Another unique feature of this account is its recognition that the severity and types of these infections vary considerably from country to country, and from the developing world to the developed world: the international team of experts involved in this compilation have striven to make this an account that will transcend these boundaries and be suitable for all doctors and allied health professionals around the world charged with the care of the mother and newborn.
'Newell and McIntyre provide a world-view of their subject with contributions from the UK, North and South America, South Africa and continental Europe ... Congenital and Perinatal Infections manages to combine the roles of comprehensive textbook and rapid reference-source ... this is a very affordable book and I would say, read it now.' Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine
