Insurance Law and Regulation, Cases and Materials
Used as the principal text in insurance law courses at more than one hundred law schools, this casebook offers a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field. The Eighth Edition covers the full range of essential topics, including 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. Designed for both foundational and advanced study, the casebook gives balanced attention to personal and commercial insurance. It includes four full-length, standard-form insurance policies, which are integrated directly into the relevant chapters to foster hands-on policy analysis. The thoroughly updated Eighth Edition incorporates cutting-edge legal and market developments, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the opioid litigation wave, and the rise of generative AI. It also features expanded coverage of statutory and regulatory texts, equipping students with the tools to read, interpret, and apply insurance-related legislative and regulatory materials. Throughout, newly crafted questions, modernized principal cases, and updated insurance policies deepen student engagement and support active learning.
