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:
Cytokines of the Immune System: The Role of Cytokines in Disease Related to Immune Response, Second Edition is a comprehensive and essential resource for graduate and postgraduate training of physicians, dentists, biomedical specialists, and those interested in scientific research in biology and biochemistry. The book provides an up-to-date, textbook-like description of immunology, focusing on the critical role of cytokines in immune responses. With advancements in cytokine research and signal transduction, this new and improved edition offers a deeper understanding of cytokine-receptor interactions, supported by novel figures based on crystal-structure conformations from the protein database.
These insights are invaluable for inspiring new drug designs and therapeutic strategies. The book delivers a thorough overview of immunology, detailing the development and regulation of the immune system, with a special focus on cytokines. It presents an upgraded description of interleukins, immune-modulatory cytokines, and chemokines, exploring their structure, sources, functions, receptors, disease associations, and therapeutic potentials. This edition also introduces the latest information on innate lymphoid cells and their cytokines, as well as their adaptive immunity counterparts. A dedicated chapter on the cytokine storm provides critical insights into this phenomenon.
