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:
WINNER OF THE LONDON HELLENIC PRIZE
SHORTLISTED FOR THE ANGLO-HELLENIC RUNICMAN AWARD
A SUNDAY TIMES AND SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR
'Essential and hugely enjoyable' Katy Hessel
'A triumph ... an extraordinary book that stopped me in my tracks' Peter Frankopan
Cast in buff bronze and carved in white marble, it's easy to see the Greek and Roman body as flawless. But this is a lie.
Reaching beyond the galleries and behind the myths, classicist Caroline Vout exposes Greek and Roman bodies for what they truly were: anxious, ailing, imperfect and diverse - and responsible for a legacy as lasting as their statutes. Beautifully illustrated, and delving into questions of life, death, morality and personhood, Exposed reveals the classical body in all its flesh-and-blood glory.
