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 authors attempt to construct a logical analysis of human actions by focusing on actions based on choice. By looking at the so-called "stit" sentence (i.e. so-and-so is "seeing to it that"), which they take as a fundamental idiom in the way we discuss action, they provide formal semantics for "stit" in terms of a time continuum whereby a given action is true if an agent had made a certain choice at an earlier point within the process.
MoreLong description:
In this elucidating work, the authors attempt to construct a logical analysis of human actions, focusing on those actions based on choice. Using their examination of "seeing to it that," they investigate a large number of topics, including imperatives, deontic logic, strategies, determinism, and promising assertion. One of the work's provocative conclusions is that one, actual future does not exist; instead, all possible futures are on par with one another.
