From Library Journal
The author of this well-written overview is vice president of consumer affairs for the Insurance Information Institute, a property and casualty insurance industry trade association. Hence, although there is a great deal of useful information in this book, it is not consumer-oriented in the same sense that Ralph Nader and Wesley J. Smith's Winning the Insurance Game ( LJ 9/1/90) is. In discussing issues such as auto insurance rate setting and insurance fraud, for example, Taylor suggests that consumers are hurt by anything that impacts negatively on the insurance industry. Nevertheless, this book is not primarily a polemic and can be recommended with reservations as a supplementary source for public libraries.

Book Description
Here at last is a genuinely helpful consumer guide that shows you how to figure out quickly and easily your personal insurance needs and save money in the process. How to Get Your Money's Worth in Home and Auto Insurance provides all of the answers to the most basic questions people ask-plus the ones people wish they had asked-about risk management on two of the biggest investments they are ever likely to make. In her foreword to the book, Linda Golodner, executive director of the National Consumers League, praises Taylor's efforts: Most consumers like to know what they're buying. When it's insurance, they want to be on a level playing field with agents and companies. This book is for them. Barbara Taylor cuts through a complex subject and gives consumers a resource for manpower. Additional endorsements come from an impressive cross-section of the nation's consumer protection advocates, including Susan Grant, president of the National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators; Harry Felder of the New York State AARP; and Brian Johnson, economic policy director of the Michigan Citizens' Lobby.
