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.

This is a most impressive volume, an Introductory Psychology textbook that provides an international perspective. Professors of Introductory Psychology in the United States should certainly take a serious look at this book. I have heard many complaints that all American Introductory Psychology textbooks are about the same. For those who have ever voiced this suspicion, Eysenck's text should be carefully examined because it certainly breaks the mold in many ways. The book is thorough and written at a high level (by U.S. standards) and the depth of coverage is greater than that seen in most North American textbooks. The book may be more suitable for Introductory Psychology courses that are spread across two semesters than completed in only a single semester. The writing is engaging and the book is well illustrated. All instructors of Introductory Psychology should seriously consider this book. - Henry L. Roediger, III, Washington University in St. Louis
Eysenck presents his material in a balanced, stimulating, and culturally sensitive manner. He skillfully supplements classic theories of psychological constructs with more recent theoretical models. His illustrations of key concepts with core examples and descriptions of clinical experience are particularly helpful. Moreover, the 'evidence,' 'evaluation,' and 'discussion points' bridge science and clinical experience admirably and stimulate critical thinking. A major contribution! - Aaron T. Beck, University of Pennsylvania
