I bought both a trade paperback size hard copy and a Kindle ebook. Then I went through the books (in both versions), wrote in pencil the places that we students should read on a day-by-day basis, and noticed that there seem to be information in both versions that my be placed in a different location, so unless the missing data is penciled in by the user as footnotes or stickie tabs, it might make for some confusion. Neither version looks or reads like there’s ‘missing’ or ‘misplaced’ text is even missing, if you weren’t expecting to find it. Even so, one will not find a clearer or more thorough work in one place on putting the Seven Laws of Noah into action in the real world.

Within an hour of starting to read this book, two of the pages have completely become unattached from the book. As i have left it a bit late to return, im stuck with it. I have re-placed the pages back into the book with tape, but it is not an ideal solution.
Now im hesitant to continue reading it any further, as im just wating for more pages to come away from the book as in turning the page.
UPDATE! 13/05/2024 (So far 16 pages and counting, have came away from the binding.)
However, my assessment is negatively conditioned by the presence of some rulings that I consider very weak and questionable on the halachic level.
I quote two of them.
Rav Weiner peremptorily affirms that the belief in the existence of intermediaries between the Almighty and humanity, without any worship towards such entities, constitutes idolatry for the Jews, while for the non-Jews it is a legitimate conduct according to most part of the poskim, but it prevents the non-Jew from acquiring the status of "pious Gentile", and therefore from having part in the world to come. Now, in my opinion this ruling is incomprehensible on the halachic level. Rav Weiner relies on the decisions of Rambam (Maimonides), who however does not say at all what Rav Weiner claims. Rambam in fact establishes that those who worship intermediaries have no part in the world to come, not those who simply believe in their existence without worship towards them(Mishneh Torah - Hilchot Teshuvah chapter three), and Maimonides himself says that the Almighty makes use of "separate intellects", that is the malachim (so-called "angels") to act in the world (Guide of the Perplexed, part two). And again: great Sages of the Torah, such as Rabbeinu Bachya ben Asher, Nachmanides (Ramban), Yehuda Halevi, Ramchal (Rav Luzzatto) and many others, affirm that the Almighty established malachim, planets and stars such as His ministers to govern the nations of the non - Jews:these Sages remind us that worshiping such entities is idolatry for all, Jews and non-Jews, but they affirm that such lesser powers really exist.
Another example: the book peremptorily states, based on Rambam's decision, that even non-Jews are forbidden to make complete humanoid statues, even for decorative purposes only, but Rav Weiner forgets to remind that very important poskim both ancient (Chatam Sofer) and moderns (Rav Moshe Feinstein z'l) disagree with Maimonides and consider such conduct, in their written responsa, perfectly lawful for non-Jews:it is fully legitimate to decide according to Maimonides, of course, but in my opinion it would have been right to highlight the opposite opinion on the matter expressed by relevant halachic authorities, a sign that the question is controversial and not peacefully defined.
There would be other examples to cite, but that would lengthen my review even further.
Therefore, a book definitely worth buying for anyone who wants to learn more about Noahide Law, but to check with other sources.
