Excerpt from The General Principles of the Law of Insurance
The promisor is called the underwriter, or insurer; the promisee, the insured or assured; the written instrument embodying the contract is known as the policy; and the consideration of the contract is the premium paid by the insured to the insurer. The general principles of the law of contracts apply to the contract of insurance, as they do to other contracts, as regards offer and acceptance, ratification, agency, fraud, etc.
The three principal forms of insurance are (1) against loss by the perils of the sea (marine in surance), (2) against loss by fire (fire insurance), (3) against loss of life (life insurance). While there are some important differences between marine, fire and life insurance, yet the general principles of the three have much in common.
