Good basic book, easy to read and very convenient to look for specific topics. My only criticism is that they werr vey short on the explanations for each mitzvah.
I recommend this book to all Jewish people, particularly those who are rediscovering their faith.
Good introduction to the concept of Mitzvah and Jewish practice from a Reform perspective. Useful for review, introduction and reference. If you are reading this book and want to discuss it with someone who has a long association with Jewish religion and Jewish philosophy and culture you can message me.
