summary

Although this collection of responsa is ascribed to the Ramba’n, careful perusal has determined that with the exception of five or six responsa, the entire collection is indeed by the Rashb’a. As a respondent, he answers inquiries directly, without unnecessary, lengthy scholastic discussion. The number of his responsa, including this pseudo-Nachmanides collection, reaches well over three thousand, with inquiries addressed from all parts of the world, and touching upon all phases of law - religious, family and civil, as well as theological concerns.
