MacGillivray on Insurance Law is a classic work which deals with all insurance risks other than marine.

There are countless examples of it being cited in the courts to clarify key arguments.

The 11th edition brings the work up to date. It takes account of the key legislative and judicial decisions, as well as the new regulatory structure for insurance under the Financial Services Authority.
