Description for Proportional Hazards Regression
Hardback. This book focuses on the theory and applications of a very broad class of models which underlie modern survival analysis. However, this text differs from most recent works in that it is mostly concerned with methodological issues rather than the analysis itself. Series: Statistics for Biology and Health. Num Pages: 560 pages, 41 black & white illustrations, 24 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 31. Weight in Grams: 1004.
Proportional hazards models and their extensions (models with ti- dependent covariates, models with time dependent regression co- cients, models with random coe?cients and any mixture of these) can be used to characterize just about any applied problem to which the techniques of survival analysis are appropriate. This simple obser- tion enables us to ?nd an elegant statistical expression for all plausible practical situations arising in the analysis of survival data. We have a single unifying framework. In consequence, a solid understanding of the framework itself o?ers the statistician the ability to tackle the thorniestofquestionswhichmayarisewhendealingwithsurvivaldata. The main goal of this text ... Read more

Each chapter begins with a section called Summary and a following one called motivation; each chapter ends with some exercises and class projects. … It is very carefully written, with detailed explanation and discussion everywhere. … I believe that the book can be thoroughly ...
