'... this book can be recommended as being emminently fit for its purpose.' - Reference Reviews

Reviews of Previous Editions

'All contributors are to be congratulated for producing a book which is readable, up-to-date and thought provoking, as well as being an invaluable guide to underwriting practice. Every life office should have at least one copy - and every underwriter and every actuary should know where it is.' - Journal of the Institute of Actuaries (Review of 3rd edition)

'This underwriter cannot imagine anyone choosing to go on underwriting medical risks without handy access to a copy of Medical Selection of Life Risks. On second thought better buy two. The first one is apt to get dog-eared fairly quickly.' - On the Risk (Review of 4th edition)
