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.

'Knights and Castles is an important contribution to the regeneration literature, not least because it draws attention to efforts that have been made to render regeneration a more inclusive process. As such the book will serve as an encouragement to others looking to pluralise urban renewal.' Gavin Parker, University of Reading, UK '...an interesting historical and intensively descriptive insight into the roles played by minority groups in a series of urban regeneration projects across Europe and in the UK and the US. The various case studies will help readers, especially undergraduate and postgraduate students.' Urban Studies 'With this collection an intellignet effort has been made to achieve coherence...there are eight chapters, focused on particular illustrative material, offering a rich array of insights into urban renewal experiences and implications, as well as on matters such as the varying nature of racialisation across contexts...every chapter offers something interesting...the editors are to be commended for having pulled things together as well as they have.' Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies
