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:
International Cooperation in Bankruptcy and Insolvency is published in cooperation with the International Insolvency Institute and the American College of Bankruptcy. The Honorable Bruce A. Markell, Dr. Bob Wessels and Prof. Jason Kilborn provide readers with invaluable insights into the origin, development and future of communication and cooperation in cross-border insolvency cases between insolvency practitioners and the courts. The globalization of the world's economy has led to highly complex international aspects of financial reorganization and restructuring. This publication analyzes the structures, systems, and practices that have developed and are quickly emerging to coordinate and enhance international administrations.
