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:
This comprehensive and yet succinct guide provides practical, hands-on guidance for conducting non-human primate (NHP) research with the highest standards of ethical care and scientific precision.
Drawing on an array of resources and decades of personal experience, this book covers everything from species-specific behaviours, appropriate housing and enrichment programs to detailed protocols for anaesthesia, analgesia, perioperative nursing and surgical procedures. Unlike existing works that often focus on exhaustive detail or are geared toward other species, this volume is concise and targeted, making it ideal for new and experienced scientists in basic and applied research.
The chapters offer fundamental information, step-by-step protocols, illustrative figures, definitions and further reading suggestions, allowing readers to navigate complex procedures with confidence. The book also addresses the unique ethical and technical challenges of invasive research on NHPs, a species invaluable to science for its genetic and physiological similarities to humans. From documentation practices to medication lists and environmental enrichment strategies, the present work provides the foundational knowledge and operational insights needed to ensure animal welfare and scientific integrity.
With this resource, readers gain a streamlined yet thorough reference that not only enhances research quality but also ensures that ethical considerations are met, making it an invaluable companion for anyone involved in NHP research, including expert personnel and veterinarians working with the animals.
