Synonym for "way"

Hi all!

Does anybody know a synonym for way in this sentence. I've used that word quite often in my text already and I was wondering if there's another word that fits:

"The book is different in two significant ways."

Maybe "two significant aspects"?

Thanks

"Aspects" is best.

You might also consider "features". The book features two siginicant differences. I do not like that sentence as it seems quite stilted.

Why not change the construction of the sentence entirely?

The book differs in a couple of significant areas....

Two differences in the book can be seen in its treatment of ......

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your answer.

I'm not a native speaker but your suggestions somehow don't sound that good to me. I dont think somebody would say "The book is different in two significant processes/procedures."
