About This Item
Washington, D.C., U.S.A.: Joseph Henry Press, 1998. Hard Cover. As New/No Jacket. This book is about the role that insurance, along with other policy tools, can play in reducing losses from natural disasters and in providing financial protection for those who suffer property damage; the authors, leading experts on insurance, discuss the reasons for the dramatic increase in insured losses from natural disasters and the concerns of insurers about their ability to continue to provide coverage; they address the question of why there has been an increasing demand for hazards insurance, the types of coverage private insurers are willing to offer, and the role of reinsurance and public/private initiatives in providing protection to victims of natural disasters (laminated tan cover with brown lettering; a bright, clean, tight copy)
