Genes and Insurance

Delve into the thought-provoking world of "Genes and Insurance" by Marcus Radetzki, published by Cambridge University Press in 2008. This insightful book, spanning 180 pages, addresses the complex relationship between genetic information and insurance practices. Radetzki challenges the conventional regulatory approaches often employed to manage ethical dilemmas associated with genetic data usage in the insurance sector. Instead, he proposes a revolutionary idea: the revival of collectively funded public insurances as a potential solution. This engaging read is essential for academic researchers, insurance professionals, and anyone interested in the intersections of genetics, privacy rights, and insurance law in the United Kingdom. Discover how these critical issues are evolving and the implications for the future of insurance in this enlightening work.
