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 essays in this book survey different systems of civil justice, describe their structure, examine their problems, and analyse the reforms adopted. Before reforming one's own system, the reader is encouraged to look at how others have tackled similar problems and whether their efforts were met with success or failure.
MoreLong description:
A sense of crisis in the administration of civil justice is present in many countries. Delays and high costs render access to the civil courts either useless or prohibitively expensive or both. The crisis takes different forms. In some jurisdictions the problems lie in high and unpredictable costs but in others there are overcrowded courts and exorbitant delays.
Those interested in civil justice will be familiar with their own system but they will seldom have knowledge of other systems and these essays, written by leading experts in the field, survey different systems of civil justice from other jurisdictions. An understanding of other systems will enrich the reform discussions in which each country by drawing attention to common problems, to their roots, to the solutions tried and, above all, to the consequences (for better or for worse) of reform. Civil Justice in Crisis shows that we can learn from others' success but that we may find their failures even more instructive.
This collection of information about the operation of civil justice systmes in thirteen countries makes the book an important resource for anyone concerned about access to justice, cost and delay, who is interested in civel procedural reform...a book of immense practical value.
