The book allows to learn the basics of how the insurance industry works and what should everyone of us know about the nature of risk and possibilities of its management. A typical subject-related university-curriculum book - not excessively exciting, yet fulfilling its task well.

This is a fairly good introduction to the insurance industry. I think it delivers a comprehensive explanation of the details of several types of insurance. A perfect book for getting a lay of the land of the insurance business.
