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.

Short description:
This book uses a case-study approach to outline the field of dizziness and balance disorders. Written from the combined perspectives of a neurologist and a neurotologic surgeon, each case study describes history, physical examination, laboratory testing, differential diagnosis, and treatment. The text includes background material and 59 case studies, five of which concern multiple diagnoses, and ten of which address controversial issues. Vestibular Disorders spans the gap
between textbook knowledge and the real world of caring with patients with dizziness.
Long description:
This book uses a case-study approach to outline the field of dizziness and balance disorders. Written from the combined perspectives of a neurologist and a neurotologic surgeon, each case study describes history, physical examination, laboratory testing, differential diagnosis, and treatment. The text includes background material and 59 case studies, five of which concern multiple diagnoses, and ten of which address controversial issues. Vestibular Disorders spans the gap
between textbook knowledge and the real world of caring with patients with dizziness.
The text is superbly organised, well written, and provides practical, specific treatment regimes. The case studies are cross referenced. Additionally, there is an appendix of diagnoses by page, and references following each chapter as well as a complete bibliography at the end of the book . . . This book provides a systematic approach to the dizzy patient, clinical detailed histories in a question and answer format that is easy to read, and treatment options. It is useful to both
specialists and non-specialists from the level of medical student to balance disorder specialists. I highly recommend this book.
