How did the sages find themselves without answers to halachic issues? What processes were used to discover the answers? Why did these processes lead to different conclusions? This book examines these issues comprehensively and provides answers that are neither simplistic nor evasive to questions that often puzzle beginning and even advanced students of Talmud. This work makes extensive use of talmudic sources and annotations and includes an introductory perspective written at the behest of and under the direction of Shimon Schwab
