Synopsis
Excerpt from The Principles and Finance of Fire Insurance
IN the autumn of 1903 I had the honour to deliver a course of ten lectures at the London School of Economics (university of London) on The Principles, Practice and Finance of Fire Insurance. These lectures were well received, and caused a gratifying amount of interest, not only among those who listened to them, but also among insurance officials out side. I have, therefore, ventured to recast my Lectures in the form of this book, and present the result in the hope that it will be accepted as a serious study in the comparative science of insurance.
