"Criminal Law in Canada is a case-oriented approach, in which the student is encouraged to study not only the general principles of criminal law but also the specific details of decided cases. Using this method, students learn to apply these principles of criminal law to concrete factual situations that arise in everyday life or to situations that they may encounter in their professional lives. Contemporary changes in the Canadian Criminal Code are thoroughly examined and compared with precedent-setting cases, thereby creating a context for understanding and interpreting criminal law in Canada."--Pub. desc.
