Description
` Divided into three parts, this book deals with policies of insurance, parties to insurance contracts and special types of insurance. Thus, the basis of the formation and construction of the insurance contract are examined in detail, with specific consideration given to life, accident, fire, liability, motor vehicle and guarantee insurance. In this, the sixth edition, Professor Robert Merkin has rationalized the chapter content to provide a clear text containing the most up-to-date law on the subject. The chapter on marine insurance law in particular has been restructured to provide a section-by-section commentary on the "Marine Insurance Act". Reference is made to the most recent case law and to legislation enacted since the last edition of the "The Law of Insurance" and affecting the various areas of the subject. The chapter on motor insurance law has been extensively changed to incorporate the changes made by the "Road Traffic Act 1988", and the implications of the applicability of the "Financial Services act 1986" to long term insurance are discussed in the chapter dealing specifically with the insurer.
The Harmonization of insurance regulation within the European community is as yet far from complete, and only likely to be so in 1992 or 1993. The effects of such legislation, and most importantly the availability of insurance services across national boundaries, is a theme carried throughout the book, dealing with the parties to an insurance contract.
