The book presents the halakha by analyzing all relevant sources from the Torah, through the Mishna and Talmud, earlier and later halakhic authorities (Rishonim and Aharonim), as well as contemporary halakhic authorities, tracing each halakha from the source through the latest practical applications.

It begins with a brief summary of all the topics discussed in the book and it includes charts and pictures to enhance the reader's understanding of the laws and their applications. There is also additional material relating to the spiritual meaning of Shabbat, and biographical information about the authorities cited in the book. The book is suitable for anyone seeking to study the laws of Shabbat in depth, regardless of one s background in the study of halakha in general or in the laws of Shabbat in particular.
