    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:

    A Wall Street insider’s look at how the Fed shifted risk to taxpayers, rewarded reckless risk, and damaged the economy

    Years of trying to control the economy with easy money has finally caught up with the federal government, and now its practice of repeatedly rescuing Wall Street is under acute scrutiny. In Bailout Nation, financial heavyweight and industry pundit Barry Ritholtz connects the dots to reveal how corporations were allowed to act irresponsibly, and why the consumer is left suffering in an economy of bubbles, inflation, and a devalued dollar.
