English books

I was wondering if you could recommend an informative and fairly comprehensive English (language) book on the halochos for a Kallah who is getting married shortly.

Thank you for your wonderful website and service.

Dear questioner,

Thank you for your question.

See our list of English books for several options.  We especially recommend Dr. Deena Zimmerman's A Lifetime Companion to the Laws of Jewish Family Life, published by Urim.  Dr. Zimmerman is our site's medical advisor and the author of most of our articles.

This internet service does not preclude, override or replace the psak of any rabbinical authority. It is the responsibility of the questioner to inform us of any previous consultation or ruling. As even slight variation in circumstances may have Halachic consequences, views expressed concerning one case may not be applied to other, seemingly similar cases.
