Description

Renowned for a crisp, analytical style that succinctly explains complex topics, Colinvaux gives readers a detailed account of all the essential components of insurance law.

The ninth edition emphasises the impact of recent cases and legislation on the established principles, notably changes to the Companies Act 2006, House of Lords decisions in WASA v Lexington and Moore Stephens v Stone Rolls. The book deals individually with marine, life and accident, liability, property, financial and motor vehicle insurance, deals with reinsurance, and discusses the impact of the credit crunch on insurance law.

Regular supplements keep the work up-to-date with the latest developments.
