Features: Professor He Qinhua currently serves as the President of East China University of Political Science and Law, a Professor, and a Doctoral Supervisor. He also holds the position of President of the National Society of Foreign Legal History. Professor He Qinhua is diligent and highly productive, with his textbooks and works being well-received by readers for their solid and innovative approach. Since its first publication, this book has undergone three revisions and is currently the mainstream textbook for teaching foreign legal history in law schools across China. The book incorporates the strengths of previous unified textbooks on foreign legal history in China and designs a new teaching system—classifying ancient and medieval periods by legal systems and post-modern periods by countries—from Babylonian law to European law, with clear organization, aiming to overcome the shortcomings of traditional textbooks in this field, which are often disorganized and overly complex.
