    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:

    "



    John Duffy's classic history, formerly titled The Healers, has
    been thoroughly revised and updated for this second edition, which includes
    new chapters on women and minorities in medicine and on the challenges
    currently facing the health care field.
    ""This remains the only comprehensive history of American medicine.
    The treatment of the emergence of modern medicine and the flowering of
    surgery is especially fresh and well done. As one of the respected scholars
    in our profession, John Duffy has again demonstrated his wide knowledge
    of the subject.""
    -- Thomas N. Brunner, author of To the Ends of the Earth: Women's
