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 Invisible History of Museum Computing uses engaging quotes from a one-of-a-kind collection of oral histories gathered by the authors from more than fifty current and former museum technology professionals working in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Australia to shine a light on the invisible, behind-the-scenes work of museum computing.
This book provides a critical analysis of key trends in museum computing that collectively drove the museum technology profession forward from the 1960s to the present day, and offers an ""annotated history"" of museum computing that shares engaging quotes from the museum technology professionals who participated in this oral history project, places their memories in the appropriate historical context, and uses their personal stories to tell the history of museum computing from the perspective of the very people who lived through it.
Filled with a positive spirit of inspiration, innovation, and boundless enthusiasm, this book brings to life the history of museum computing in a way that has never been done before as it explores the overarching trends that influenced the field of museum computing over the past sixty years and explains why that history continues to matter today as museums move forward into their digital future.
