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 Immunology of Domestic Ruminants: Cattle, Sheep, and Goats provides a thorough examination of the immune systems of these animals. It explores their normal immune functions and their roles in combating infectious and parasitic diseases, chronic inflammatory conditions, and immunodeficiency disorders. The book incorporates new data from the bovine genome project and highlights significant breed differences. Both innate and adaptive immunity are systematically covered, offering insights into basic and applied aspects of bovine immunology. In addition to detailing the immunology of major bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases in cattle, the book reviews bovine vaccines and emphasizes the importance nutrition.
This essential resource caters to professionals in large animal research and practice, providing comprehensive information on the immunology of domestic cattle, sheep, and goats.
- Provides an authoritative and comprehensive source of information on the immune systems of domestic cattle as well as sheep and goats
- Links recent basic science to important clinical issues
- Includes current information on vaccines and disease resistance in ruminants
- Discusses the relationship between nutrition and the ruminant immune system
