    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:

    Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Endocrinology: Physiology, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Management, Second Edition continues to systematically examine the normal and abnormal endocrinology of the pregnant and lactating female and of the fetus and neonate. This new edition expands coverage of specific disorders and diseases beyond the current endocrinology content on the market making it the go-to reference for translational and clinical research scientists to appreciate the research gaps that require further investigation. It's comprehensive coverage of pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatments, will help readers better understand how various diseases present differently in pregnancy and lactation and how to respond to related complications.
