    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:

    The major aim of this book is to de-mystify splenic pathology for non-specialist consultants and trainees in histopathology. The interpretation of pathological changes in the human spleen provides a significant challenge to the skills of even the most highly trained histopathologists. This comprehensive account of the most important and frequently encountered pathological conditions affecting the spleen is highly illustrated in colour throughout with numerous detailed macroscopic and microscopic specimens. Emphasis is placed upon the importance of adequate clinical information and technical preparation of splenectomy specimens in obtaining the best possible histopathological assessment of the tissue. A systematic, analytical approach to interpretation of pathological changes is used throughout the book. This should enable readers to feel confident in their assessment of significant processes within the spleen. This volume serves as an illustrated atlas, a bench manual, as a text, and as a source of reference, and will be an indispensable guide.

    'This volume serves as an illustrative atlas, as a bench manual, as a text and as a source of useful selected references ... the book will not only be of great value to trainees but will also be useful to experienced consultants and will become an indispensable guide that should be readily available in all libraries and reporting rooms in departments of histopathology.'
