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:
For anyone interested in the production and dissemination of printed books since the fifteenth century, this collection of essays offers a way of studying how tastes and practices have changed and can be understood. Using evidence from tiny fragments to entire libraries, from the manufacture of type and the creation of bindings to the sale of books, Professor McKitterick explores how people have come to decisions about what and how to read. As the world now depends increasingly on digital resources, these essays provide the means of understanding how print was dominant for five centuries.
