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:
Colloid science is the study of systems involving small particles of one substance suspended in another. The first edition was in two volumes. This second completely revised, reorganised, and updated edition is presented for the first time in a single volume. This book starts with the basics, and is simplified from the previous edition. Many exercises are included and careful development of the necessary theory is given.
MoreLong description:
This is a completely revised, reorganised, and updated second edition of the classic textbook on colloid science, provided for the first time in a single volume.
Colloid science is the study of systems involving small particles of one substance suspended in another. Suspensions of liquids form the basis of a wide variety of systems of scientific and technological importance including paints, inks, ceramics, cosmetics, soils, biological cells, and many food preparations. Although concentrating on systems involving suspensions of solids in water, the development here is made in terms which can be readily extended to the other less frequently encountered systems.
The book explains the principles of colloid science, and provides a clear account of the fundamental physical and chemical concepts on which our understanding of colloidal systems depends. The accent is on making the theories accessible by providing all necessary development.
"The treatments are consistently thorough, articulate, appropriately illustrated, and insightful." Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 244 (2001)
