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:
This is a new edition of the author's "classic" book, long since out of print. Published originally in 1972 it rapidly established itself as the leading work dealing with mysteries of the US constitutional system as it effects US foreign relations. The new edition has been reconceived, reorganized and completely updated, but in essence it remains a succinct and highly readable account of a subject which is important not only in the US, but throughout the world.
MoreLong description:
This is Louis Henkin's classic book, long out of print, in a much-anticipated new edition. Reconceived, reorganized, and updated, this work remains a model of clarity. This new edition is essential reading for all those interested in understanding the United States and its place in world affairs. Professor Henkin takes the reader through the mysteries of the US Constitutional system as it governs US foreign relations. He explains how the US Government acts on the world scene - respective authority of the President and Congress in making foreign policy and conducting foreign relations, conflict and co-operation between them in determining the use of military force, and US policy on arms control, on the sale of arms, on trade, on financial assistance, on human rights. He explains where US treaties stand in US law and policy; the role of the courts in foreign affairs; US policy on the United Nations and other organizations, on international tribunals, what the Constituion requires in respect for individual rights within the US and beyond. Every reader will be able to follow and enjoy the text. For those who are interested there are many pages of rich, scholary notes.
'Both the novice and the expert continue to benefit from the reading of this classic...The Second Edition features the usual Henkin cornerstones: a richly adorned blueprint, a solidly researched foundation, and a writing style which hammers the essentials into elegant construction.'
