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:
Respiratory ailments are the most common reason for emergency admission to hospital, the most common reason to visit the GP, and cost the NHS more than any other disease area. This pocket-sized handbook allows instant access to a wealth of information needed in the day-to-day practice of respiratory medicine.
MoreLong description:
Revised and updated for its fourth edition, the Oxford Handbook of Respiratory Medicine is the must-have resource for respiratory trainees, internal medical trainees and other junior doctors in acute and internal medicine, medical students, and all clinicians caring for patients with respiratory problems. Concise, practical, and designed for rapid access to essential information, this handbook will ensure you have everything you need for the ward, clinic, or in the run up to exams.
All major respiratory diseases and symptoms are covered in practical, succinct chapters. This new edition includes the latest clinical guidelines from the British Thoracic Society and NICE, and covers key developments in the field. Additional detail has been added to more challenging topics such as sleep medicine, lung transplantation, and pulmonary disease in the immunocompromised patient, and there is a dedicated section on COVID-19. The handbook features unique sections on practical procedures and a symptoms section to aid in differential diagnosis and clinical management. Practical advice on management is integrated throughout and a dedicated section on respiratory emergencies ensures you can cope with any eventuality. This fourth edition will ensure you have all the information you need at your fingertips!
This is another blockbuster from the highly respected Oxford Medical Handbook Series and as expected, this is superb. Like the other siblings in the series, it is packed with huge amounts of information relevant to clinical practice, in the title topic... Crucially it is well written, easy to read and packed with information that is relevant to the topic. I would say, this is information dense but highly readable and written with dealing with patients in mind.
