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.

MoreLong description:
The Multimedia Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to the wide range of uses of multimedia. The first part of the book introduces the technology for the non-specialist. Part Two covers multimedia applications and markets. Tony Cawkell details the huge array of authoring software which is now available, as well as the distribution of multimedia data by telephone, cable, satellite or radio communications. There is an extensive bibliography, a glossary of technical terms and acronyms and a full index.
'This is a worthwhile, authoritative and well-constructed book. It could be relied on by anyone seeking to gain an insight into these technologies, information managers as much as media students and professionals.' - David Bawden, International Journal of Information Management
