<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This book is divided into two main parts. Part I contains six survey articles on different subjects that represent significant developments over the past years: optimality of insurance contracting, liability insurance, moral hazard, adverse selection, insurance pricing and econometric estimation of accident distributions. Part II extends the recent literature by presenting fourteen essays on different subjects of current research in: a) the theory of insurance economics covering nonlinear expected utility, prudence, deviant beliefs, incomplete markets, increases in risk, and ambiguity, b) problems of information including moral hazard and competitive markets, adverse selection and probationary periods, incomplete information and risk categorization, and c) empirical studies on workers' compensation, adverse selection and the effects of no-fault in automobile insurance</abstract>
