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:
The first anthology to highlight the problems of environmental justice and sustainable development, Reflecting on Nature provides a multicultural perspective on questions of environmental concern, featuring contributions from feminist and minority scholars and scholars from developing countries.
Offering examination of immediate global needs in addition to theoretical discussion, this extensive text addresses some of the most crucial problems we now face. Readings include the work of historical figures such as Aristotle, Locke, Darwin, and Thoreau, as well as contemporary figures like Bernard Williams, Thomas Hill, Jr., and Jonathan Glover, while works by Val Plumwood, Bill Devall, Murray Bookchin, and
John Dryzek comprise a radical ecology section. The editors introduce each section with insightful essays. This comprehensive and timely text of philosophical and environmental writing will inform, enlighten, and encourage debate.
the editors have done an excellent job in selecting a broad range of interesting and provocative writings from philosophers, scientists and activists on environmental philosophy and inmaking the necessary abridgements and selections from longer works. Readers will get from the book a good introduction to the wide range of issues that can be included under the heading `environmental philosophy'. More important, they will learn that environmental philosophy is exciting, innovative and
worth doing, and that it is not merely an academic pursuit.
