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.

Short description:
A provocative reconsideration of Liddell & Scott's Greek Lexicon, presenting suggestions for its expansion and revision, and offering many new interpretations of passages of Greek literature based upon a lexicographic approach.
MoreLong description:
H.G. Liddell and R. Scott's Greek-English Lexicon (revised and augmented by H.S. Jones in 1940) has been the essential tool of advanced Greek scholars for 150 years; in order to update it a new Supplement has been published (OUP 1996) replacing that of 1968. In this provocative reconsideration both of its lexicographical principles and of individual articles, John Chadwick examines the need for further revision and expansion of the volume through a re-examination of the classical Greek vocabulary. A series of notes are presented, making important and stimulating contributions to the study of classical Greek lexicography, and offering many new interpretations of passages from familiar authors based upon a lexicographical approach. Essential reading for all scholars of classical Greek.
provides a stimulating foil for evaluation both of the main Lexicon and of the new Supplement ... Chadwick's salty style combined with the semantic insights and lexicographic tips that he offers make a fascinating book which, though certainly browsable, may be read from cover to cover.
