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.

Short description:
This introduction to philosophy combines the two approaches most commonly employed to teach philosophy to college freshmen - the problems approach and the historical approach. It includes chapters on the major problems or questions in philosophy - what we can know, what exists, the mind-body problem, the existence of God, what is moral, etc. - and it addresses these problems by focusing each chapter on a particular text by a major philosopher.
