    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:

    New Perspectives in Indoor Air Quality provides readers with the latest scientific discoveries related to indoor air quality. After an in-depth introduction to indoor air quality and review of current air quality legislation, the book's chapters explore gaseous pollutants, particulate matter, ultrafine particles, and emerging contaminants. This is followed by analysis of formaldehyde emissions, VOCs, SVOCs, nanomaterials emissions, and combustion sources. From an assessment perspective, chapters include sampling approaches, traditional measuring instruments, automatic measuring instruments, assessment of bioaerosols, and geospatial analysis and modeling.

    Finally, the editors address the health effects of poor indoor air quality and examine how climate change has contributed to these issues. Fifteen detailed case studies round out the book to provide practical, real world understanding of the concepts covered throughout the preceding chapters.
