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.

"I definitely recommend this book. It is a valuable addition to the history of cartography in the past 50 years, giving, as the editors desired, the ?flavor? of the period, and also serves as a starting point for researchers in cartography. It will be a much used resource for those in seminars of mapping sciences."
