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.

MoreLong description:
Precautions often apply to pregnancy in any workplace, but being a vet in practice presents additional specific risks. There are concerns and uncertainty about potential hazards, from radiation and inhalant anesthesia exposure, to zoonoses, and the additional mental stress in a profession that already carries high suicide risk.
This book reviews considerations for professionals in clinical veterinary medicine (large and small animal) while pregnant and after giving birth. Veterinarian and veterinary writer, consultant, and mentor Dr Emily Singler speaks directly to veterinary team members (veterinarians, technicians, CSRs, assistants, students) who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. She delivers scientific information on the specific risks to the mother and baby that may be encountered during pregnancy while working in veterinary medicine, with some of her own and others? experiences to add perspective and humor.
The book also covers topics related to mental health challenges, announcing a pregnancy and planning for parental leave, navigating the fourth trimester, and returning to work. We hope that having read this book, veterinary professionals ? whether pregnant or working with pregnant colleagues ? will feel better supported and empowered to make informed decisions.
"This book is amazing ? I wish I had something like this when I was having my kids! Dr. Emily Singler has written a comprehensive guide for any veterinary professional thinking about having a family. For every part of navigating pregnancy and the postpartum period, her book offers facts sprinkled with real life experiences from mothers with a range of experiences and from all parts of the veterinary profession. My personal experience was trying to piece these things together and figuring it out as I went and mostly on my own. Dr Singler has distilled so much useful information, advice, references, and recommendations - this is an essential resource for every veterinary practice and people navigating parenting in the veterinary profession."?
