This casebook, which has been used as the principal text in more than one hundred law schools, contains extensive material on insurance contract formation and interpretation; insurance regulation; insurable interest and liability for bad-faith breach; property, health, life, and disability insurance; commercial general liability and directors & officers liability insurance; auto insurance; and reinsurance. The casebook gives equal emphasis to personal and commercial insurance, and reprints within the relevant chapters four standard-form insurance policies. The Seventh Edition includes a new stand-alone chapter on health insurance as well as new materials addressing the American Law Institute's Restatement of the Law of Liability Insurance and long-term care insurance. It also includes substantially updated materials on a range of issues, including liability insurers' duty to settle, concurrent causation, and the number of "occurrences." The new edition also includes some updated standard-form insurance policies and declaration pages.
