Life Insurance
It’s economic and social Relations.
(C) 1896 S.S. Huebner

This book is written by Solomon Huebner of the Wharton School of Finance. He was an important enough figure that today there’s an educational foundation named after him.

It’s a detailed look at the number behind life insurance. And the curious thing is, a vast portion of this book is as relevant today as it was almost 100 years ago. The need and reasons for life insurance haven’t changed in that timespan. People still die and need to leave behind a replacement income, The products survive today with surprisingly few changes, and sales techniques unfortunately haven’t progressed much either.
