Another major development of the new edition is the introduction of a new section on actuarial applications in health insurance. it can serve as important study material for actuarial students, as well as a desk reference for actuarial professionals in respect to practical actuarial issues." -The Journal of Risk and Insurance "The scope of this book is extensive, covering much of actuarial practice. It should probably be in the library of a university with an extensive actuarial science program." -MAA Review "The publication of the first edition of Modern Actuarial Theory and Practice in 1998 marked an important step in the emergence of new actuarial textbooks in the English language providing an introduction to the practical applications of modern development in actuarial science across a range of practice areas The new edition of Modern Actuarial Theory and Practice will offer valuable additional study material to those preparing for the Core Applications examination of the UK actuarial profession, and similar-level studies in other countries, as well as being a convenient general textbook for every qualified actuary to have on their bookshelf. I congratulate the authors on bringing the material together for this book and hope that it will be widely used by students and by qualified actuaries around the world." -From the Foreword by Chris Daykin, CB, MA, FIA, Chairman, Education Committee of the Groupe Consultatif
