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:
In an interdisciplinary effort authors from different countries and professional backgrounds have co-operated to present this volume on irrigation and water management in the mountainous regions of South and Central Asia. Most knowledge linked to irrigation and water management in these regions is often part of oral traditions. The case studies in this volume try to preserve some of this knowledge and present it to a wider audience. The volume covers for the first time a region
spreading from the Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union to the Eastern Himalayas and Bhutan while also providing a new discussion about methods and working techniques in conducting field research.

This valuable volume in English from European and South Asian scholars has a rich compendium of seventy maps, charts, and schematic drawings, and forty-nine excellent black and white photographs, with good contrast and detailed captions ... the generous abstracts and biographies of contributors are useful.
