5.0 out of 5 stars Best English guide to eruvin., December 18, 2008
By 
Albert Passy (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This book is an excellent mix of both practical halacha and the sources and development of that halacha. Having built an Eruv for my community starting with this book, I can tell you that I was NEVER surprised at the rulings of the supervising rabbi on questionable parts, nor was I ever unprepared for any question on why & how I handled problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best English book on eruvin. Period., July 29, 2008
By 
This is, without a doubt, the best single halakhic book written about eruvin in English. Rabbi Bechofer goes through all of the halachot relevant to a modern eruv in a modern area. He walks the reader through the sources and development of the laws, and the book includes a lot of pictures and diagrams. If you want to understand the rather complex issues surrounding eruvin, this is the book for you.
