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.

A concise introduction to the history and evolution of security at sea.
Whether it is pirates, smugglers, illicit fishing, or disputes in the South China Sea, the oceans are of increasing importance in international security. In Understanding Maritime Security, Christian Bueger and Timothy Edmunds provide a concise introduction to the history of security at sea and explain the core frameworks of analysis that professionals use to understand and tackle challenges to maritime order. They discuss key issues within the maritime security agenda, including inter-state disputes, terrorism, piracy, smuggling, trafficking, and illicit fishing, and examine how states have responded. Bueger and Edmunds analyze future trends and show how maritime security is impacted by the critical infrastructure agenda, emerging technologies, cyber security, climate change, biodiversity loss, and the renaissance of geopolitics. Comprehensive and incisive, this primer of maritime security is essential reading for maritime security professionals and students of this increasingly important issue.
Understanding Maritime Security is a 'must-read' for any government official, practitioner, or student who needs to get a handle on contemporary security challenges in the maritime domain. It provides readers with a thoughtful exposition of different approaches to maritime security, as well as exploring the most pressing concerns in the area, ranging from naval demonstrations (or grey zone tactics) to policing challenges and accessing information. Bueger and Edmunds' extensive knowledge and experience in researching and teaching maritime security contribute to the outstanding clarity and relevance of the text.
