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:
Microplastics and the Hidden Threat to Human Reproduction: Plastic Peril explores the intricate relationship between microplastics and reproductive health, delving into the sources and distribution of microplastics in the environment, human exposure routes, associated risks, the toxicological effects on reproductive health, potential connections to fertility, endocrine disruption, and developmental consequences due to maternal exposure. It includes impacts on both male and female reproductive health, risks during pregnancy, population-level health concerns, strategies for mitigating microplastic exposure, and the policy and regulatory frameworks surrounding this issue. The book also provides insights into the future direction of research and public health initiatives.
In essence, it explores how tiny microplastic particles can have significant and far-reaching consequences on human reproductive health, making this a vital and emerging area of concern. This is a comprehensive resource for anyone interested in understanding the various aspects of the microplastics-reproductive health connection and a go-to reference for researchers, healthcare professionals, policymakers, and concerned individuals.
