It's not a book in the ordinary sence, more like a compilation of approximately 500 questions and answers from the Berkshire Hathaway arranged and sorted by topics.

 

There is to me personally no doubt, that part six and the appendix in the book must be gold for an investor not alreaday with any knowledge about investing in the global insurance space.

It - the book - may have even great appeal to some CofB&F members, while to  other members perhaps not so much. Each to their own.

Does there even exist a good book about the insurance industry? - How it works, its inner economic mechanics, reinsurance etc. ? I am personally not aware of any.
