The Law of Insurance Warranties
The book provides a detailed review of efforts to reform the law on insurance warranties in Australia, New Zealand and the UK, arguing that none of these have been successful.

This book demonstrates that all these reforms have flaws and that none of them can be relied upon to deliver consistently equi...

While the European jurisdictions reflect different facets of the principle as emerging from EU law on insurance, the principle has developed quite differently in other jurisdictions.
