5Introduction to Risk Management and Insurance  Jan 09, 2007
Excellent reference book and very descriptive definitions of insurance concepts

4A good book  Nov 10, 2006
For an entry level class on insurance this is a good book to start with.

5Should be required reading for Undergrad Business  Jul 18, 2006
Definitely worth reading, even if not required for a class. A very accessible introduction to the field of Risk Management along with useful, practical information about the kinds of insurance contracts that will be encountered by consumers and businesses alike.

This, and introductory business law should be taught to all undergraduate b-school students. A great book, much better and more useful than a certain black-and-yellow book about insurance that you might be tempted to order.

5Awesome Text!  May 12, 2003
This book is user-friendly, and students really like it. The only thing they don't like is the price, but, every intro text like this is over $100 these days. I really love this text for teaching my introductory classes.
