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 book is designed to give the busy clinician immediate, easy-to-access and practical advice on clinical problems which may arise in the management of haemato-oncological patients. These problems may be rare or common but all are difficult to manage. This book provides current guidelines for management from an authoritative team of palliative care specialists, oncologists and haematologists.
MoreLong description:
Palliative Care Consultations in Haemato-oncology is the first book in a new international, multi-contributed series aimed at providing practical, clinical guidance on how to deal with difficult symptoms related to specific cancer sites. Patients with haematological malignancy often undergo the most rigorous treatments, usually requiring long inpatient stays at tertiary referral centres far removed from friends, families and everyday life. The treatment for some malignancies is palliative, although aggressive, from diagnosis and there can be a number of difficult symptom-control problems all of which are covered in this book. This volume draws on the expertise of the haematologist who is vital if the patient is to have optimal care and provides practical advice in an easily accessible form so that the book can be read and referred to on the ward, or before a domiciliary visit.
Whilst the target audience is the hospital palliative care team, this concise and reasonably priced volume would undoubtedly also be valuable to doctors and specialist nurses in haematology... Overall I would certainly recommend this book.
