In biostatistics, survival analysis studies lifetimes from the initiating event to the terminal event, while event history analysis, an independent discipline, studies more general patterns of individuals moving between states over time. This complement to the Encyclopedia of Biostatistics provides more extensive and up-to-date coverage of specialized topics within survival and event history analysis, and is designed for biostatisticians and researchers whose primary interest is in one branch of applications, or with one aspect such as clinical trials or survey methodology. Topics include actuarial methods, aging models, Bayesian approaches, censored data, cure models, duration dependence, excess mortality, frailty, hazard plotting, inverse probability, life tables, Pareto distribution, quality of life and survival analysis, relevant estimators, sample size, software, and Weibull distributions. Each entry includes extensive examples and references and topics. The cross-reference system and the subject index are particularly well-done.
