Opis

Though much has been written on multivariate failure time data analysis methods, a unified approach to this topic has yet to be communicated. This book aims to fill that gap through a novel focus on marginal hazard rates and cross ratio modeling. Readers will find the content useful for instruction, for application in collaborative research and as a source of novel research concepts. Many of the illustrations are from population disease studies which should interest epidemiologists and population scientists.
