This concise and useful book of Hilchot Kashrut is specially crafted fo the modern Jewish home. Researched and written by Rabbi Pinchas Cohen, a faculty memeber at Yeshivat Har Etzion in alon Shevut, Israel, it covers a range of frequently asked questions, such Can one use a dishwasher for both milk and meat dishes? and What is Glatt Kosher? A Practical Guide to the Laws of Kashrut is a comprehensive guide for those setting out to make a Kosher kitchen, and a valuable reference for those more informed about Kashrut issues.
Well done, but for a very specific audience. It doesn't not discuss the development of kashrut, but rather outlines what those who want to practice kashrut should do. That is something it does very well.
