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:
Jewish Ethics: The Basics demonstrates how ancient and contemporary ideas have shaped and reshaped Jewish traditions about how to act toward others. Readers are introduced to foundational questions, controversies, and diverse ethical conclusions developed by Jewish thinkers throughout the ages. Topics addressed include:
• Assumptions about Authority
• Love, Compassion, Justice and Humility
• Human Rights, War, Land and Power
• Gender and Sexuality
• Personal and Social Ethics
• Environmental and Animal Ethics
• Bioethical Issues
Concise, readable and engaging, this is the ideal introduction for anyone interested in religious ethics, secular traditions, Judaism, and the field of Jewish ethics.
“Any book on Jewish ethics that includes so many elements - classical and modern texts, theological and secular ethics, Maimonides and contemporary feminist thought - would be impressive. This book introduces all of these things and more, while remaining highly readable, concise, and generous in its analysis.”
- Emily Filler (Washington and Lee University)
