Catastrophe: How Major Disasters Reveal the Insurance Industry's Dark Underbelly

by Mike Griffiths

Catastrophe offers a behind the scenes glimpse of the notoriously secretive world of insurance. Written by an industry veteran, it lays bare how insurers have responded to some of the worst disasters the world has known. From devastating natural disasters to terrorist attacks, market collapses and corporate fraud, Catastrophe reveals how insurance companies have embraced increasingly radical changes to ensure their survival. These changes are then linked to the rise of the Delay Deny Defend controversy, the 2024 shooting of United Healthcare CEO, Brian Thomson, and the subsequent arrest of Luigi Mangione.
