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 volume explores the evolution of geographic variation in behaviour within species. The contributors have pioneered a variety of approaches to using geographically variable behavioural phenotypes for addressing evolutionary issues. They summarize advances in the field to date, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of various approaches, and give a clear and balanced overview of this area. This volume brings together evidence that behaviour varies geograhically, and explores some of the richness in phenomena, interpretations, and problems which can arise in such studies.
