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:
This volume gathers twelve papers exploring how medieval thinkers conceptualized time, examined the linguistic expression of temporality, and addressed the impact of time’s passage on the scope of possibility and necessity. Drawing on the XXIII European Symposium on Medieval Logic and Semantics, these essays also venture into natural philosophy, metaphysics, and theology, uncovering fresh arguments and revisiting pivotal debates from Avicenna through the fourteenth century.
