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 collection of essays present purely professional opinions of specialists untainted by communal and national considerations. It strengthens the feeling that the cream of the subcontinent's intellectuals think alike.
