About this book
Like its universally praised and respected forerunner The Laws of Brachos this book is destined to become a classic of halachic literature. And with good reason. The author combines all the ingredients for outstanding success in an extremely difficult literary He applies the halachic principles to modern-day life and situations and has the rare ability to explain both the background and the application accurately and clearly. Rabbi Binyomin Forst is never content to give lists of dos and donts or graphically daunting charts. First he presents the underlying principles of the laws so that the details fall into place logically and elegantly. Once that is done - spoons pots dishwashers and microwaves fall into a framework of clarity that eliminates confusion and guesswork. Nor does Rabbi Forst neglect the needs of the scholar. He provides copious sources and footnotes for further research. The result is an unprecedented book for expert and layman alike. Here is just a small sample of the practical questions discussed in this What must be done of cutlery falls into a treife sink? If a dairy spoon is found among meat cutlery? May one buy fish in a store where non-kosher fish is also sold? May a dishwasher or microwave oven be used for meat and dairy? How can one sink or oven be used for both meat and dairy?
