Book Reviews

Recognizing the growth in the number of scholarly works related to law in China, the editors of the Journal of Chinese Law are introducing, with this issue, a new section containing brief reviews of books that we feel may be of interest to our readers.
This section will provide a synopsis and evaluation of recently published books related to Chinese law in an effort to keep our readersbetter informed of new scholarship in the field. The reviews are written by members of the Journal and to the extent that they containcritical evaluations of the books, the opinions represent that of an individual Journal member and not that of the Journal as a whole.
The books chosen for review either have recently been received by the Journal or have come to the attention of individual Journal members. This section is not meant to present an exhaustive list of new publications, and with future issues we anticipate that it willbecome more comprehensive. Readers interested in submitting a review of a relevant publication are encouraged to do so.
