“[T]his book is a genuinely useful resource for anyone interested in the question of whether there is a better way to deal with accidental injuries than a system predicated on fault... Perhaps this book will provide the impetus for a radical new look at the question of how we should compensate for accidents.” – Per Laleng, School of Law, University of Kent,
European Journal of Health Law
“[T]his is a very useful contribution to our knowledge of compensation schemes and provides much-needed analysis at a time when traditional compensation systems are under increasing scrutiny. It is also to be commended for shining a light on schemes not necessarily familiar to common law scholars and for providing a useful resource for further discussion of alternatives to the court-based system of compensation.” – Ursula Connolly, National University of Ireland, Galway,

“The work gives profound insights and very detailed descriptions of the material conditions and procedures of the respective compensation systems. It is thus an extraordinarily exhaustive, legally, factually and socio-legally highly interesting foundation for any kind of discussion about compensation concepts. (Translated from the original German)” – Johannes Riedel,
