Is there a book (learner-friendly) of “the rules of the road” for France?
In Ontario there's a "Ontario Driver's Handbook" which basically summarizes all the important laws associated with driving in Ontario: what the road signs mean, stopping for street-cars and school buses, turning right on a red light, etc. etc. People are expected to read this when they're studying for their driving license examination. It's clearer than the corresponding statutes (e.g. it's illustrated with the road signs and lane markings).
Is there any similar publication for France, on paper or online?
Is it published by the State, or is it an anthology that's published privately, perhaps for driving schools?
A French-language publication is fine.
I've searched online and I can find the actual statutes but not any learner-friendly publication.
Do learners learn by reading the statutes?

"Do learners learn by reading the statutes?" - note that there might be some other ways how learners acquire the knowledge that might seem a bit obscure from the outside. For instance, a basic familiarity with traffic signs could be taught in primary or early secondary education (to help students safely ride a bike), at which point the respective information could be "buried" in school books spanning multiple topics while there would be no real market for learner-friendly books specifically on roadsigns and basic traffic rules (at least on a "beginner" level).

Yes, thank you: for example there's a Signalisation routière by Larousse. Also, I take it that people probably go to driving schools. I already have a license though (from Ontario), so (instead of going to school) I only wanted to read whatever the French government wanted to teach people about the rules (e.g. priorité à droite, what they expect of you in an emergency, etc.).

I found a site (in french) that is the "learners resource" for preparing to pass the permis de conduire - containing everything from "inspecting the exterior of your car before getting in", through adjusting your mirrors, to driving, handling intersections, road signs, etc.
It takes a bit of effort to navigate through it all, and there are annoying advertisements. But if you can get past that, it contains all the information you are asking for:
http://coachcode.e-monsite.com/
Example of a screen shot describing the two signs that indicate you have priority (the first - "only for the next junction"; the second - "all junctions on this road"):

Can you recommend one or more of them, and say whether they're just a printed version of the bare statutes, and if not then what the difference is? Still the fact that there are so many of them kind of answers my question: i.e. there's probably no single good State-sanctioned handbook (except the statutes), inferred from the observation that there are many competing private publishers.

Hello and sorry for my bad english,
You can find on Amazon the book "Code Rousseau 2017" which I find very interesting :
https://www.amazon.fr/Code-Rousseau-route-B-2017/dp/2709513927
There is a lot of websites to test your knowledge about french road signs, like this free test : https://www.codeclic.com/gratuit.php
Good luck !

@ChrisW: There is no official "simple" version that I know of, sorry. There are multiple editors competing with their own product, and providing the various driving schools.

Can you recommend one or more of them, and say whether they're just a printed version of the bare statutes, and if not then what the difference is? Still the fact that there are so many of them kind of answers my question: i.e. there's probably no single good State-sanctioned handbook (except the statutes), inferred from the observation that there are many competing private publishers.

Recommendations would be off-topic, but they basically all present the same material in different ways (since they are all aimed at people studying for the official driving exam).

"Do learners learn by reading the statutes?" - note that there might be some other ways how learners acquire the knowledge that might seem a bit obscure from the outside. For instance, a basic familiarity with traffic signs could be taught in primary or early secondary education (to help students safely ride a bike), at which point the respective information could be "buried" in school books spanning multiple topics while there would be no real market for learner-friendly books specifically on roadsigns and basic traffic rules (at least on a "beginner" level).

Yes, thank you: for example there's a Signalisation routière by Larousse. Also, I take it that people probably go to driving schools. I already have a license though (from Ontario), so (instead of going to school) I only wanted to read whatever the French government wanted to teach people about the rules (e.g. priorité à droite, what they expect of you in an emergency, etc.).
