    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:

    First published in 1944, this book looks at political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics.An unimpeachable classic work in political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics, The Road to Serfdom" has inspired and infuriated politicians scholars and general readers for half a century. Originally published in 1944 - when Eleanor Roosevelt supported the efforts of Stalin and Albert Einstein subscribed lock stock and barrel to the socialist program - "The Road to Serfdom" was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production. For F. A. Hayek the collectivist idea of empowering government with increasing economic control would lead not to a utopia but to the horrors of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. First published by the University of Chicago Press on September 181944 "The Road to Serfdom" garnered immediate widespread attention. The first printing of 2000 copies was exhausted instantly and within six months more than 30000 books were sold. In April 1945 "Reader's Digest" published a condensed version of the book and soon thereafter the Book-of-the-Month Club distributed this edition to more than 600000 readers.; A perennial best seller the book has sold 400000 copies in the United States alone and has been translated into more than twenty languages along the way becoming one of the most important and influential books of the century."
