    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:

    ndia after globalization is an increasingly mediatized society. Today, media experiences, desires, dream worlds, and fears have enveloped our time with force that was unimagined before. The blurring of the private and the public is now dramatically visible. The 'power of media' is a core explanatory category in public and academic common sense. No Limits maps the emergence of this mediatized world, and reflects on its wideranging consequences.

    Bringing together both notabe names in the field and emergent ones...No Lmits marks India's move from a major point of media exchange to a central node of media scholarship as well. [it is] an exciting and innovative volume, where content and context, audience and institution are as adjacent analyticaly as they are in actuality"
    Toby Miller, is Stuart Hall Professor of Cultural Studies, Universidad Autónoma de México, Cuajimalpa, and Professor in Media and Creative Industries at Loughborough University London.
