Reliable source on the fundamentals of insurance law covers topics such as insurable interest, risk, insurer defenses, waiver and estoppel, recovery, subrogation, reinsurance, and bonds. In addition, expert analysis provides a sense of the peculiar directions insurance law would take, and their erroneous outcomes, if the pure principles of contract law were applied.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent summary, June 3, 2004
By A Customer
I've taken Professor Dobbyn's insurance class, and let me tell you that everything he said there has been boiled down to very clear and concise points in this book. It's the only book on insurance you would ever need - a must for any student taking insurance law. From basic concepts of insurance to specific rules, this book covers everything.

Just as a horse could be defined as a piece of personalty, a means of transportation, or a slightly larger-than-average pet, depending on the reason for defining it in the first place, the concept of insurance is also subject to a wide variety of definitions, no one of which seems to suit all purposes. Read the first page
