From the letter of approbation by Rabbi J. Immanuel Schochet o.b.m., Cheshvan, 5768:

The world has undergone a fascinating revolution. For approximately three decades there has been an ever-growing interest in the Sheva Mitzvot B’nei Noach, the “Seven Commandments for the Children of Noah,” revealed in the Torah of Moses.  A great number of Gentiles throughout the world have committed themselves to observe this universal “Noahide Code.” Unfortunately, there was very little authoritative material to guide even these Rabbis.
Throughout most of post-Biblical history, the Noahide commandments could not be widely promoted, for the obvious reasons of the restraints of the Jewish exile. These circumstances made it difficult even to apply the comment of Rabbi Yomtov Lipman Heller that if we are ordained to promote observance of the Noahide Code, how much more so then to use friendly persuasion to lead the hearts of all to the Will of their Creator.  With few exceptions, this has led to “neglect” of this important aspect of Torah.
Clearly, these restraints no longer apply, and this has been conducive to the development of the so-called Noahide movement. The search for clear information and guidance, however, is hampered by the lack of precise summaries of a Code for the Noahides.
Rabbi Moshe Weiner of Jerusalem succeeded in composing a historic text in Hebrew, Sefer Sheva Mitzvot HaShem, in the style and format of the classic Shulchan Aruch, to serve as a guide for the practical application and observance of their detailed laws by Noahide individuals, families and communities. The significance of this project cannot be over-emphasized, as ever more Gentiles seek to follow a lifestyle conforming to the Divine commands incumbent upon them.
Needless to say, this is an extremely sensitive undertaking charged with great responsibilities. Thus, Rabbi Weiner’s work, Sefer Sheva Mitzvot HaShem, was submitted for review by the world-renowned Rabbinical authority HaGa’on Rabbi Zalman Nehemiah Goldberg [o.b.m.], member of the Supreme Rabbinical Court of Israel, who graciously examined the text, adding numerous comments throughout, and granted his approbation.
All the scholars consulted have praised this work as a major achievement, which brings an important but neglected area of Torah to the forefront of Rabbinic attention. They emphasize, though, that it is yet more important to make all people aware of it, in concise and easily readable format, as an authoritative guide for their daily lives. The English version [titled The Divine Code] is now serving as the basis for translation into other languages.
Immeasurably great is the merit of all those who are involved with, and supporting, this extraordinary endeavor, which no doubt will hasten the fulfillment of the prophetic vision of “the earth will be as filled with knowledge of G-d as water covering the sea bed” (Isaiah 11:9).
