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.

MoreLong description:
This is the first complete English language version of Shen Kuo&&&8217;s seminal Brush Talks From Dream Brook, published outside China. Highly valued by scholars for its scientific and technological coverage, this encyclopaedic book is probably the most important source text for technological advances and the organization of knowledge in China&&&8217;s golden age, the Song dynasty (960-1279).
Author Shen Kuo is the most famous writer in China&&&8217;s scientific history. The significance of Brush Talks From Dream Brook have been thoroughly researched by scholars such as Fu Daiwie but it has not yet gained the recognition it deserves in Western studies on the history of science and technology.
Written between 1086 and 1093 in note style, it covers astronomy, mathematics, geography, physics, biology, medicine, military, literary, history, archaeology and music. Now translated into English and available outside China for the very first time, it&&&8217;s rightly recognised as a masterpiece in the history of Chinese scientific and technological development.
