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:
Adult childlikeness is familiar to everyone. However, childlikeness remains a little-studied and catchall concept whose more or less ameliorative or pejorative meaning can vary considerably depending on time and place, but also on disciplines. LIKE A CHILD WOULD DO attempts to pierce this conceptual fog. Navigating between classical Chinese fiction, Shakespearean characters, the arts, consumer society, psychoanalysis, evolutionary theories, interactions with computers at work, toy play, or law courts, this book provides a better understanding of the concept and highlights its continuing negotiation given its capacity to symbolise the character of our societies, notably the role of Man and his degree of freedom within these roles.
