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.

The over-65 population in the United States is rapidly growing. There are currently about 52 million people over 65 years of age in the United States or 16.5% of the U.S. population. This percentage is expected to reach 22% or 70 million by 2050. This means that during the professional lives of current trainees, they can expect to see an increasing number of older patients in their practice. Average life expectancy in 2004 was 75.2 yr for men and 80.4 yr for women. Due to the pandemic, average life expectancy has decreased for both men and women with declines differing by race and ethnicity. Overall, current average life expectancy is 75.1 years for men and 80.5 years for women.
