  Preface:
The Purpose Of This Book
Introduction:
The Proper Perspective on Yichud
 

As is true in every work of halachah, we have navigated a path through the sea of Poskim. In this volume we have mainly relied upon the rulings presented in the most recent seforim dealing with this subject. Their rulings, in turn, are based upon the rulings of the greatest Sages of this generation and of previous generations. They are:

Dvar Halachah by Rabbi Avraham Halevi Hurvitz

Nitei Gavriel by Rabbi Gavriel Zinner

Toras HaYichud by Rabbi Pinchas Eliyahu Rabinovitz

Minchas Ish by Rabbi Ayal Shraga

We have also in general cited the ruling of the Rema in the text, it being the Ashkenazic custom, and we have highlighted in the footnotes the ruling of the Bet Yosef, the Sefardic custom.
