    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:

    By examining the tomb images and artifacts from a religious perspective, combined with a cognitive approach that strives to uncover the essentials of the Han belief system, the author convincingly shows how Han belief represented the dimension of faith in the national power structure while reconstructing the history of religious Daoism at the time. This is the first historical study on the subject using this new methodology.
