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.

The new edition includes recent and changing rituals in the Jewish community, such as the growing trend of baby-naming ceremonies and the founding of gay/lesbian synagogues.
