    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:

    The only text to take a critical approach to the field of corrections, Corrections offers a unique and refreshing presentation that encourages students to think analytically about punishment. Establishing a greater social context, Corrections addresses the political, economic, religious, and technological forces that affect the corrections system. The book consistently introduces clear, meaningful, and exciting examples that illustrate various issues and concepts addressed.
