Features: As one of the legal series textbooks for vocational and technical colleges, this book has been widely loved and supported by readers since its publication. After the revision and re-publication in 2003, China has made significant progress in legal system construction, and relevant systems have been continuously supplemented and improved. To facilitate the learning and reading of readers, based on the previous revision, we have made another substantial revision to the textbook. The focus of this revision is to introduce case teaching methods more broadly and deeply into the textbook. We have inserted a sufficient number of reference cases in the main text of each chapter, combining the teaching of knowledge points with vivid case analysis to deepen readers' understanding of knowledge points and legal provisions, as well as to train their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. These cases were carefully designed by the revisers around important and challenging knowledge points, with a large portion extracted from real-life scenarios and transformed into legal language. In addition to inserting reference cases in the main text, this revision has also made the following improvements: , At the beginning of each chapter, we still use a case to introduce the main text, but we do not immediately provide the solution to the case. The purpose of this approach is to encourage readers to find the answers through their own learning during the reading process. After the main text, we provide an analysis of the introductory case in the "Case Analysis" section, allowing readers to compare their own analysis with the provided solution. Additionally, we have updated some of the introductory cases from the previous edition. Second, in the post-lesson exercises section, we have added new types of questions, such as "Terminology Explanations" and "Case Analysis," hoping that through these exercises, readers can achieve the effect of strengthening memory and deepening understanding. Third, since the Supreme People's Court provided a detailed explanation on the application of technology contracts and construction contracts in 2004, this revision has made significant modifications to the main text of the chapters on technology contracts and construction contracts. For the other chapters, we have only made minor adjustments to the main text.
