Summary

Explains, article by article, how the provisions of criminal law came into being, were revised and amended, and how the corresponding charges evolved historically, listing the relevant normative documents in chronological order. It covers the Criminal Code and its amendments, separate criminal statutes, and subsidiary criminal law, supplemented by legally effective laws, legislative interpretations, judicial interpretations, departmental rules, as well as guiding joint documents, legislative documents, judicial documents and administrative documents.

Editor's review

The Practical Complete Compendium of Criminal Law is a major criminal law reference work compiled by Kong Limin and published by China Legal Publishing House. Taking the provisions of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China as its outline, the book systematically integrates legislative interpretations, judicial interpretations, judicial documents, guiding cases and authoritative academic views, aiming to provide legal practitioners with a one-stop, systematic reference for handling criminal cases. Compared with similar books, its standout features lie in being "practical" and "complete": not only is its coverage extremely comprehensive as of the time of publication, but it also focuses on concrete application in judicial practice, meticulously sorting out and explaining key issues such as the constitutive elements of charges, sentencing circumstances, evidentiary standards and procedural linkages.

From an editor's perspective, the book's value lies in its powerful integration of materials and practical guidance. It is not a mere compilation of statutes; through careful structural design, it precisely links normative documents scattered across various sources to specific legal provisions, greatly improving search efficiency and systematic understanding. For handling complex criminal cases, especially those requiring an accurate grasp of policy boundaries and sentencing standards, the book helps users quickly build a complete framework of legal argumentation and avoid omissions. Kong Limin, as a senior legal publishing planner, demonstrates in his editorial approach a deep insight into the needs of judicial practice, ensuring the authority and timeliness of the content. Readers should be reminded, however, that the law is continuously updated, and the latest legislation and judicial interpretations must be consulted in use. Overall, this is a heavyweight reference work for professionals, whose reading value lies in combining day-to-day consultation with in-depth research; it is a trustworthy desk reference in criminal law practice.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Criminal defense lawyers, corporate legal counsel and other legal practitioners who need to handle criminal cases
  • Judges, prosecutors and other judicial personnel, for case reference and unifying the standards of legal application
  • Law school teachers, graduate students and senior undergraduates, as in-depth reference material for criminal law research and study
  • Candidates preparing for legal examinations who need systematic, practice-oriented study of criminal law (e.g., the subjective question stage of the national legal qualification exam)

Not a good fit for

  • Ordinary readers with only a preliminary interest in criminal law or seeking popular reading material
  • Readers looking for brief, quick conclusions or novelized case interpretations

Reading tips

  1. Use it primarily as a reference work, consulting it for specific charges or provisions rather than reading it cover to cover
  2. Focus on the "Practical Points" and "Case Guidance" sections, which embody the book's core practical value
  3. Use the table of contents and index system to build your own search path for criminal law issues and improve efficiency of use
