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.

'This book will change lives. It has changed mine.' Yasmin Alibhai-Brown
How do you know if the medicine you’re taking is right for you?
Should you worry about side effects, and, if so, how much?
And how can you advocate for a loved one when it comes to being prescribed medication?
In How to Take Drugs, world-renowned pharmaceutical expert Dr Nick Barber answers these questions and more, explaining how medicines actually work on your body, how they’re tested, and why they are often so much less effective than you might think.
Dr. Barber’s clear ‘Avoid, Kiss, Marry, Divorce’ framework offers a practical guide for evaluating how your medication is working, and offers solutions – whether you’re taking medicines now, facing a new diagnosis, or supporting others with their healthcare.
In a world full of contradictory medical information and concerns around over-prescription, it is an essential, eye-opening read.
'A lively and empowering read, full of deftly explained science, good humour and humanity.' - Dr Lucy Pollock, author of The Book About Getting Older
