    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:

    Mechanobiology: From Molecular Sensing to Disease will provide a review of the current state of understanding of mechanobiology and its role in health and disease. It covers:ï¿1⁄2Current understanding of the main molecular pathways by which cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli,ï¿1⁄2A review of diseases that with known or purported mechanobiological underpinnings;ï¿1⁄2The role of mechanobiology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; Experimental methods to capture mechanobiological phenomena;ï¿1⁄2Computational models in mechanobiology.
