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:
The proceedings of The Valencia International Meeting on Bayesian Statistics (held every three years) provide an overview of this important and highly topical area in theoretical and applied statistics.
MoreLong description:
The Valencia International Meetings on Bayesian Statistics, held every four years, provide the forum for researchers to come together and discuss frontier developments in the field. The resulting Proceedings provide a definitive, up-to-date overview encompassing a wide range of theoretical and applied research. This fifth Proceedings is no exception. In particular, it reflects a growing emphasis on computational issues, concerned with making Bayesian methods routinely available to applied practitioners, both statisticians and speciailists in other subject-matter, whose work depends on careful quantification of uncertainties. This book contains several invited papers by leading authorities.
In the preface, the editors say that they believe that "the Proceedings provide a definitive, up-to-date overview of current concerns and activity in Bayesian statistics, encompassing a wide range of theoretical and applied research." I concur with their belief, and I eagerly await publication of the proceedings of the next Valencia meeting.
