The price is estimated because at the time of ordering we do not know what conversion rates will apply to HUF / product currency when the book arrives. In case HUF is weaker, the price increases slightly, in case HUF is stronger, the price goes lower slightly.

This book is part of Prospero's 31st birthday offer. If you order a book (marked with the balloon logo) from the birthday list online (in the online shop, by adding it to your shopping cart and placing the order) on 6 October 2025, we will give you a 20% discount on all these books on that day only.
Moreover, if you order at least three of these books (preferably in a single order), we will apply a 30% discount to the lowest-priced book after the order has been received.
If the total value of your order(s) of at least three birthday books reaches 100,000 HUF excluding VAT, we will apply the special 30% discount to the highest-priced book instead of the lowest one — but still only to a single book.
(You will not see the special 30% discount in your shopping cart, as it will be applied manually by our staff after your order has been received. It is important that your order is placed on 6 October; we will not be able to apply the discount before or after this date. The discount is available only for recipients of our ‘Favourite Topics Notification’ newsletter.)

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:
Molecular Tools and Infectious Disease Epidemiology examines the opportunities and methodologic challenges in the application of modern molecular genetic and biologic techniques to infectious disease epidemiology.
The application of these techniques dramatically improves the measurement of disease and putative risk factors, increasing our ability to detect and track outbreaks, identify risk factors and detect new infectious agents. However, integration of these techniques into epidemiologic studies also poses new challenges in the design, conduct, and analysis. This book presents the key points of consideration when integrating molecular biology and epidemiology; discusses how using molecular tools in epidemiologic research affects program design and conduct; considers the ethical concerns that arise in molecular epidemiologic studies; and provides a context for understanding and interpreting scientific literature as a foundation for subsequent practical experience in the laboratory and in the field.
The book is recommended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students studying infectious disease epidemiology and molecular epidemiology; and for the epidemiologist wishing to integrate molecular techniques into his or her studies.
