About this book
Reviews
'This book is a magisterial compendium of historical information. As the British economy enters the most dramatic period of change since the Industrial Revolution, it is valuable to have a reference point as to how things were in the recent past. The whole scene is set out here: life and general insurance, reinsurance and the changing pattern of legislation and regulation. No-one is better qualified than these writers to bring all this material together and this book again confirms their standing as absolute leaders in their field.' - Dr David E Bland OBE, former director general of the Chartered Insurance Institute and Chairman of Viapost Ltd, UK
