To help readers grasp the basic knowledge of each discipline at a glance, each chapter includes a "Summary of Key Knowledge Points in This Chapter," which summarizes the basic knowledge points of each chapter and then selects typical cases around these points. Through the analysis of these cases, the basic content of each discipline is systematically explained. To achieve the goal of "learning law through cases," each case includes several parts such as 【Case Summary】, 【Legal Issues】, 【Reference Conclusions】, and 【Legal and Theoretical Analysis】, with a focus on the legal and theoretical analysis to enhance the depth of the "Case Teaching Materials."

They have devoted a great deal of effort to the conception and creation of this series of textbooks.
