    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:

    We share with the people of the Enlightenment the common experience of profound technical, social, and cultural upheavals. Even back then, many pressing questions of our time were being posed: about the claim to truth in science and politics, about the question of gender, about social and global justice, about sustainable economic practices, about peace in Europe and the world, and about how to deal with natural disasters. This book updates the insights of the Enlightenment and helps us use them to understand the crises of the present in a new way.

    Johannes Rohbeck is Professor emeritus of Practical Philosophy and Philosophy Didactics at the Technical University of Dresden.
