Features: Take it back, this book will change your life. The early prototype of the Kuihua Series for the Judicial Examination was the "Outline of the National Lawyer Qualification Examination" co-authored by Fu Ying and Wang Feng. It was internally printed in Beijing from 1997 to 2000 and gained immense popularity among candidates in the capital. Due to strong demand from candidates, it was officially published in 2003. Later, the two authors personally revised and oversaw multiple reprints.
The Kuihua Series for the Judicial Examination is guided by a scientific layout, making it highly suitable for both the examination and guiding judicial practice. The core motivation behind the authors' writing this series was to demonstrate their profound knowledge and the "rigorous and pragmatic" nature of their work, while enhancing the effectiveness of the material in preparing for the exam. From the main content arrangement to the design of the format and the aesthetically pleasing cover style, the book has captivated candidates and inspired numerous publishers to follow suit.
One of the series, "Advanced Course for the National Judicial Examination," though named a "course," features an innovative layout and an extensive knowledge base, surpassing ordinary exam preparation books. Its professionalism is sufficient for use as a college law textbook. If students study this book diligently, accumulate knowledge, and not only master the exam but also lay a solid foundation for future legal careers, they will benefit immensely. The book subtly imparts the invaluable legal thinking of a legal professional through its unique structure, narrative methods, and explanations, even as it teaches legal knowledge.
Some students complain that the series is too heavy and difficult to handle. However, the Judicial Examination has become increasingly challenging over the years, far more so than the lawyer qualification exam of the past. In such a situation, it is impossible to pass the exam through short-term cramming. Relying on a book that simply highlights "essentials" or "key points" and expecting to pass the exam in a rush is a misguided approach. The two authors did not cater to or encourage this wrong mindset but continued to dedicate their efforts with a scientific and pragmatic attitude. Despite being called the "Kuihua Treasure," the series contains no shortcuts.
"Advanced Course for the National Judicial Examination" includes:
- "Civil Law"
- "Criminal Law"
- "Civil Procedure Law and Arbitration Law"
- "Criminal Procedure Law"
- "Administrative Law and Administrative Procedure Law"
- "International Law · Private International Law · International Economic Law"
- "Commercial Law and Economic Law"
- "Jurisprudence · Legal History · Constitution · Legal Ethics" (8 books in total). It follows the National Judicial Examination syllabus and is based on laws, regulations, and (supplementary judicial interpretations). The content is organized by subject.
The book creatively divides each chapter into four levels:
Level 1: Key Points Summary
This section lists the relatively important points of the chapter. The brilliance of the Key Points Summary lies in its direct focus on the chapter's core, using concise language to clarify the intrinsic logic of law and create a comprehensive learning framework. It helps students understand what knowledge to absorb to complete the framework and solidify their memory. Without this level, jumping straight to "key points" would be ineffective—this is the significance of the Key Points Summary.
Level 2: Relevant Legal Provisions
This section compiles important legal provisions that may be tested, arranged scientifically for easy association and memorization. The Relevant Legal Provisions include not only those found in general "Judicial Examination Laws and Regulations Compilation" but also crucial parts often overlooked, such as "Supreme People's Court Approvals" and "Supreme People's Court Letters." Collecting all laws, regulations, and important "approvals" or "letters" is a monumental task. Most exam preparation books only reference the "Laws and Regulations Compilation," ignoring equally important or more easily understandable and widely used "approvals" and "letters." Fu Ying and Wang Feng keenly recognized the importance of these elements. Additionally, for specific legal systems, they include closely related laws and regulations from other systems that are likely to be tested, enabling students to compare, generalize, and interconnect key knowledge for more efficient study. This effort makes the Relevant Legal Provisions richer and more comprehensive than typical "Key Legal Provisions" books while being far more concise than general "Laws and Regulations Compilations." It can fully replace both "Key Legal Provisions" and "Laws and Regulations Compilations."
Level 3: Legal Provision Commentary
This section interprets the relevant legal provisions. Based on the content of the Relevant Legal Provisions, it provides authoritative explanations of the true meaning of the provisions, avoiding misunderstandings and dead ends in learning. It also highlights easily confused or overlooked points among related provisions, helping students not only memorize the rules but also grasp their essence. Understanding the provisions allows for better retention and application.
Level 4: Chapter Puzzle Solving
This section fully explains the legislative intent and the examiners' reasoning, further clarifying the connections and applications of the provisions. It is the most valuable part of the series. For each section, it distills key points, analyzes examination directions, explains why questions are posed from a certain angle, and offers strategies for effective review. It ensures all related knowledge points, including those easily overlooked, are covered. The book provides insightful arguments for each section, with "Points to Note" in bold to highlight easily misunderstood, ignored, or confused aspects.
Beyond fully absorbing the strengths of other exam preparation books and avoiding pitfalls, the authors excel in language organization and narrative style, using plain yet clear language to explain complex legal issues. Their ability is truly remarkable, revealing that law is not as obscure as commonly perceived but a sacred field filled with wisdom and a call to duty.
