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 volume presents an authoritative and accessible overview of slavery and slaving in world history, with an introductory essay by David Brion Davis, Pulitzer Prize-winning Oxford author and eminent historian. Informed by comparative research and supported by detailed bibliographies, more than one hundred topical and geographical essays span the breadth of current scholarship. The range of coverage makes the work both an indispensable survey of established historiography and an invaluable guide to contemporary issues and concerns in this field of study.
MoreLong description:
Eminent scholars provide an overview of what we now know about slavery as an institution and way of life in cultures around the globe from ancient times to the present day. Drawing on the virtual explosion of empirical research and theoretical discussion of the subject over the past thirty years, many of the articles overturn conventional wisdom and illuminate little-known aspects of the subject, with essays on topics such as concubinage, eunuchs, occupational mobility.
