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:
Observers from the West, the book contends, have incorrectly projected rigid ethnocentric notions of love and marriage onto cultures around the world. Contributors look beyond each society's "official" institutions to explore expressions of love, offering new perspectives on arranged marriages and polygamy and reexaminging as well the other side of the equation: rejection and grief.
MoreLong description:
"What these often wonderfully evocative field reports demonstrate is that, while the capacity for some kind of passionate attraction to another may very well be a human universal, that capacity is shaped and molded into a myriad of forms by different cultures. A very valuable and timely contribution. Highly recommended." -- Choice
