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.

Few scholars have seen the evolution of Indian economic policy as closely as I. G. Patel. This book is an autobiographical account of that experience.

beginning of systemic corruption, the politicization of economic institutions, and the response to the second oil crisis.
For scholars working on development, India watchers , university students, civil servants, policy-makers and the general reader, this book makes fascinating reading.
