There is no book that aggregates all of the different Jewish Laws, since Judaism is always encountering new situations and needing to reapply pre-existing laws and precedents to new situations. Probably the best place to find a coherent set of laws that represents (more or less) what Judaism's laws are is the "Set Table" or Shulchan Aruch, which was written in the 1560s by Rabbi Joseph Caro. An abbreviated English translation, the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, is also available.

Answer:Judaism's laws are contained in the Torah, but are explained in the Talmud. The Talmud, while an important part of Judaism, does not have the holiness of the Torah.There are several. The Talmud and Shulchan Aruch are two excellent answers.
