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:
Hybrid zones - geographical areas in which the hybrids of two races are found - have attracted the attention of evolutionary biologists for many years, both because they are windows on the evolutionary process and because the patterns of animals and plant variation seen in hybrid zones do not fit traditional classification schemes of taxonomists. Hybrid zones provide insights into the nature of the species, the way barriers to gene exchange function, the genetic basis of those barriers, the dynamics of the speciation process. Hybrid Zones and the Evolutionary Process synthesizes the extensive research literature and points to new directions in research.
'This compilation provides a timely update on many theoretical issues and includes examples of long-term multidisciplinary studies ... this book deserves a wide audience.'
Jack W. Sites, Jr. Brigham Young University, Science, Vol. 264, April 1994
