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.

This accessibly-written book examines the most commonly-used substances and techniques for managing pain, exploring why they work (or don't), their risks and benefits, and key research findings regarding their use.
No one is a stranger to pain. From sudden injuries and post-operative discomfort to nagging aches and stiffness, pain is an unwelcome but familiar part of life. There are numerous methods for managing pain, but it can be difficult to know which is the best fit and to separate truth from hype.
Introductory materials give readers a foundational understanding of what pain is, how it is categorized and measured, and the impact it can have on individuals' physical and psychological well-being. Utilizing a standardized structure, each entry discusses a particular substance or technique's origins and underlying principles; how and in what context it is used; and its advantages and disadvantages. Summaries of key research studies are included to help readers better determine which treatments may be a good choice for them. Further Reading sections at the end of each entry point readers toward additional resources to expand and deepen their knowledge.
