    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 book provides complete, unbiased answers to these and all your technical and business questions about smart card systems.



    Dreifus and Monk guide you step-by-step through the entire process of selecting, designing, building, and managing a smart card application tailored to your business.
