Fundamental sefer by Rabbi Shmuel Abuhav. Printed anonymously, with the author, location and year of print not stated.

This sefer divided into 10 parts addresses these issues and provides an important historical glimpse of the spiritual standing and challenges facing the community.
Rabbi Shmuel Abuhav (1610-1694), was among the great Torah giants and poskim of his generation. He served as Rov of Verona and authored the famed D’var Shmuel responsa. He was amongst the fiercest opponents of Shabtai Tzvi, and invested tremendous efforts to curb the “Sabbatean” influence in Italy.
