Features: Compared to existing textbooks in China, this book has the following four significant characteristics: , It arranges its system innovatively, moving from abstract to concrete, and from principles to practices. The design of chapters and sections emphasizes the intrinsic logical relationships within the field of insurance. Second, it highlights the principle-oriented content and focuses on aligning with the insurance studies under market economy conditions. Third, the book is highly practical, which can be seen in many of its chapters. For example, the chapter "Purchasing Insurance" discusses the topic from the perspectives of the policyholder and the insured, exploring how the policyholder can purchase insurance to maximize utility. This kind of in-depth analysis is rarely found in existing textbooks in China. Fourth, the author presents well-researched viewpoints on many issues, rather than simply following the conventional wisdom of predecessors. Additionally, the overall structure of the book reflects the characteristics of a well-organized textbook: each chapter begins with an introductory section and key terms, and is accompanied by an index for easy reference.
