Editor's review
This book is a statutory compilation tool in the "Little Compendium" series aimed at the field of criminal procedure, continuing the series' portable quick-reference approach. Its value lies in gathering commonly used laws and regulations in criminal procedure into one place, making it easy for law students, judges and prosecutors, corporate legal staff, lawyers, and bar exam candidates to consult quickly in study and practice. The inclusion of QR-code updates helps readers obtain information on regulatory changes and keep content current. The layout pursues concision, practicality, accuracy, and clarity, making it suitable for keeping on a desk or carrying for scenarios such as court preparation, classroom cross-referencing, and exam review. It should be noted that it is positioned as a quick-reference tool, not a systematic textbook or scholarly commentary; readers should not expect complete theoretical exposition or case analysis. Used together with textbooks and case studies—building a procedural framework first, then looking up specific provisions—it will be more efficient.
