"Warranties have played and continue to play an important part in insurance transactions. Professor Soyer in his magisterial book on the subject explains the meaning, function and effect of such warranties...A strength of Professor Soyer's book is the sustained consideration of the impact of the 2015 Act at the outset of its statutory life...This is a book that warrants and repays careful study and makes a positive contribution to the law." Review of the third edition by Peter MacDonald Eggers QC in the Journal of International Maritime Law (2017)
"There is no doubt that [the second edition] will be just as well received as its predecessor. It is very readable and interesting account of the law regarding marine insurance warranties…. The author is to be commended on producing yet again a very worthwhile addition to the insurance law literature." Review of the second edition by Professor John Birds in the Journal of Business Law (2006)
"In short, the subject of marine insurance warranties is an area that combines conceptual complexity with practical importance. Dr Soyer deals with it with authority and accuracy, and with a continuing critical faculty. An excellent second edition. May there be many more." Review of the second edition by Professor Robert Grime in the Journal of International Maritime Law (2006)
"This book is a welcome and much-needed addition to the small number of books devoted to the law of marine insurance." review of the first edition by Lord Justice Longmore, Law Quarterly Review
