"Structure Of The Hammurabi Code" offers a detailed examination of one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. This study by David Gordon Lyon delves into the organizational principles and specific contents of the code, providing insights into ancient Babylonian society and legal thought.

The book explores the arrangement of laws, the social hierarchies they reflect, and the punishments prescribed for various offenses. Lyon's analysis sheds light on the code's impact on subsequent legal systems and its lasting importance as a primary source for understanding early civilizations. This remains a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history of law and ancient cultures.
