A chapter in Mathematics Unlimited — 2001 and Beyond, 2001, pp 703-722 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The profession of the actuary is one of the oldest in the financial world. It began in the middle of the 19th Century with life insurance, and, until the 1960s, mathematical methods were largely applied to price life insurance contracts, develop mortality tables using statistical data, and calculate reserves.
