Features: The Core Course of Legal English consists of three volumes, each with 16 units. Each unit is composed of two to three texts and systematic language and legal skills exercises. The exercises are diverse and cover a wide range. As a comprehensive foundational textbook (or intensive reading material) for cultivating "law+English" and "English+law", this course not only emphasizes the development of English skills such as reading, writing, speaking, and translation in the exercises but also focuses on legal knowledge input. Each unit's texts are interconnected, systematic, and progressively structured. The texts in the first volume are primarily about basic legal knowledge, the second volume focuses on international economic law, and the third volume emphasizes legal materials for in-depth exploration to cultivate students' legal skills and analytical abilities. At the same time, it pays special attention to training students' ability to use English materials for legal practice and research, enabling them to fully leverage and utilize their English strengths. The first two volumes also include case studies related to the unit's legal themes, allowing learners to grasp the legal knowledge and skills of each unit through real-life legal examples.
