    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:

    Atherosclerosis is the most significant cause of cardiovascular disease worldwide. Vascular biology is the key to understanding how atherosclerosis arises and operates. The ESC Textbook of Vascular Biology is a rich and clearly laid-out guide by leading European scientists providing comprehensive information on vascular physiology, disease, and reasearch.

    The textbook covers molecular findings and novel targets within the speciality while also providing the basics of vascular biology and disease pathophysiology. It also covers the major changes in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis that have occurred in recent years, developments and recent breakthroughs in the field are specifically highlighted.

    The official publication of the ESC Working Group on Arthrosclerosis and Vascular Biology, this print edition comes with access to the online version on Oxford Medicine Online, for as long as the edition is published by Oxford University Press. By activating your unique access code, you can read and annotate the full text online, follow links from the references to primary research materials, and view, enlarge and download all the figures and tables.

    The textbook particularly appeals to vascular biologists, cardiologists, and other practising clinicians.

    An outstanding contribution from a multidisciplinary team of recognized European scientists providing a timely update on the most important topics related to vascular diseases and vascular-associated pathologies. The ESC Textbook of Vascular Biology will certainly be invaluable to cardiovascular scientists, cardiologists, and - more in general - to any specialist dealing with vascular diseases. It is also an important tool for undergraduate students in medicine and biology who start approaching this fascinating field of science.
