TLDR
The California Law Review published a tribute to Professor Ehrenzweig in October 1966, on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday, which included Negligence Without Fault and full-Aid insurance for the Traffic Victim-A Voluntary Compensation Plan as discussed by the authors. But mentioning these four volumes hardly does him justice, for his oeuvre comprises more than a dozen books and some 250 articles and book reviews.Abstract:
Albert Ehrenzweig's death on June 4, 1974, ended an illustrious and productive life. A brilliant scholar in two legal systems, Professor Ehrenzweig wrote and published extensively bn subjects which stimulated his interest. Through his writing and teaching he aroused others. Notable among his works are his Treatise on the Conflict of Laws,' Psychoanalytic Jurisprudence, 2 and two highly influential studies in tort law, Negligence Without Fault and \"Full-Aid\" Insurance for the Traffic Victim-A Voluntary Compensation Plan. 4 But mentioning these four volumes hardly does him justice, for his oeuvre comprises more than a dozen books, and some 250 articles and book reviews. Often controversial, always perspicacious and thought-provoking, Professor Ehrenzweig's writings will continue to influence and inspire legal scholars. The California Law Review published a tribute to Professor Ehrenzweig in October, 1966, on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday.5 It included Professor Ehrenzweig's seminal Negligence Without Fault, and it contained several articles by distinguished scholars on subjects to which Professor Ehrenzweig had devoted much of his own work, as well as a bibliography of Professor Ehrenzweig's published works. The time has come to update that bibliography, not to close the book on Professor Ehrenzweig's work, but to commend his completed writingsread more

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the rise of enterprise and strict liability in the United States was a well-foreshadowed, forecastable trend and if a reinsurer did not see (or, atleast, sense) this development coming, then it received obtuse legal advice.
