R. Ovadiah Yosef on Customs
I have written before about R. Ovadiah Yosef’s attitude towards different customs, and this recently published book looks like it will be an interesting addition to the literature on the subject.

menachem,
You are a whiz at sniffing out new books but beforre you go and whet everyone’s appetite, you should at the very least tell us where to get the book. I searched all of the regular haunts in the holy city for the book and none of them had even heard of it. Schar halicha I got, but alas no book. The sadness is overwhelming.

I only know of its existence through it being cataloged at the JNUL. Maybe give Yeshivat Hazon Ovadiah a call and see if they have it. It used to be in Romema behind the old central bus station among all of the car repair shops. I think that we maybe even went there once together.
