The book traces the evolution of criminal classifications, analyzing the historical context from common law to modern statutory enactments. It highlights the dynamic nature of criminal law, showing how it adapts to emerging threats and societal changes.

Beginning with fundamental principles like due process, the book progresses through the structure of criminal codes, examining offenses against persons, property, and public order, culminating in a discussion of sentencing and law reform.
