In recent years, China's system of spiritual damage compensation has continued to develop, and new typical cases of spiritual damage compensation have emerged in judicial practice, requiring summary. Especially, the Supreme People's Court issued the Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in Adjudicating Cases of Personal Injury Compensation, which revised the original provisions on spiritual damage compensation. Based on the above reasons, it is necessary to revise this book. Therefore, we take this opportunity to thoroughly revise it.

The book has been completely rewritten in terms of its format and content, forming Spiritual Damage Compensation – Centered on the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation on Spiritual Damage Compensation, and is published in conjunction with Personal Injury Compensation – Centered on the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation on Personal Injury Compensation.
