    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:

    The poor state of perinatal and newborn health in Pakistan has been of great concern to successive governments and development agencies in general. Despite enormous investments in programs and interventions, the impact on important mortality and morbidity indicators is both variable and slow. In order to move forward it is imperative to understand the various dimensions and determinants of maternal and child health in Pakistan, their relationship with family planning as well as
    other factors such as macroeconomic issues, poverty and health system performance. Although there is no paucity of solid research work in this area, much of the information is disparate and not readily available for informed policy making.

    This book is the compilation of several invited papers and deliberations of recent meetings that brought together key national and international experts for evaluating factors that relate to perinatal health, newborn care of relevance to South Asia and maternal and fetal malnutrition. It contains a wealth of information on many areas of importance in relation to perinatal health in South Asia. The book not only provides a situational analysis but also reviews the programs and makes
    recommendations for action and research. All chapters have been written by global and regional experts in the field and cover a wide range of subjects.
