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 fourth edition is a comprehensive and updated overview of positive and negative effects of UV-exposure, with a focus on Vitamin D and skin cancer. Chapters have been updated to reflect the most significant and timely information related to topics such as the epidemiology of skin cancer, the immune system and skin cancer, ultraviolet damage, DNA repair and Vitamin D in Nonmelanoma skin cancer and malignant melanoma. There have been a number of new, scientific findings in this fast moving field that necessitated a thoroughly updated and revised edition including five new chapters on the optimal Vitamin D status, the impact of Vitamin D supplementation on cancer incidence and mortality, photodynamic therapy of non-melanoma skin cancer and more. The book summarizes essential, up-to-date information for every clinician or scientist interested in how to balance the positive and negative effects of UV?exposure to minimize the risks of developing vitamin D deficiency and skin cancer.
