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.

Short description:
This handbook presents information on Culicidae (Mosquitoes) and insecticide-based mechanisms of resistance development. A crucial reference source for mosquito-borne disease control and prevention, this book is meant for researchers, university students, medical entomologists, parasitologists, and public health professionals.
MoreLong description:
This is an up-to-date and comprehensive handbook that presents a wealth of information on the different aspects of one of the largest dipterous family, Culicidae (Mosquitoes). India shares more than ten percent of the global mosquito fauna and this book provides an extensive inventory of extant taxa, along with a detailed description of the key identification features of medically important mosquitoes. This book illustrates updated information on insecticide-based mechanisms of resistance development in vectors and showcases varied host?parasite interactions. This authoritative account is a crucial reference source for mosquito-borne disease control and prevention. This book is meant for researchers, university students, medical entomologists, parasitologists, and public health professionals.
