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 covers the applied basic sciences in an accessible, concise way enabling the dental student to understand, in their preclinical years, why the medical sciences are relevant to clinical dental practice. It covers pathology, microbiology, pharmacology and there are also sections on biochemistry, immunology and behavioural sciences for dentistry. Critical evaluation and communication skills have also been addressed.
MoreLong description:
The Oxford Handbook of Applied Dental Sciences covers the medical sciences for the preclinical dental student in a concise and easily accessible format. An international team of experts in dental education and research provide information on the applied basic sciences to ensure a sound understanding of why the medical sciences are relevant to clinical dental practice. Anatomy and development, pain and behavioural sciences, biochemistry, genomics,
immunology, microbiology, pathology, and physiology are all covered. Emphasis is placed on advances in the sciences, the changed content of subjects, and the relevance to dental clinical practice, ensuring that this Handbook will provide all the information necessary for a comprehensive understanding of the
subject.
The book provides a good, concise summary of many of the traditional preclinical topics.
