About the Book

If something can fail, it can often fail in one of several ways and sometimes in more than one way at a time. There is always some cause of failure, and almost always, more than one possible cause. In one sense, then, survival analysis is a lost cause. The methods of Competing Risks have often been neglected in the survival analysis literature.

Table of Contents:
Continuous Failure Times and Their Causes. Parametric Likelihood Inference. Latent Failure Times: Probability Distributions. Likelihood Functions for Univariate Survival Data. Discrete Failure Times in Competing Risks. Hazard-Based Methods for Continuous Failure Times. Latent Failure Times: Identifiability Crises. Martingale Counting Processes in Survival Data. Appendices. Bibliography. Index.

Review :
"…an excellent self-contained treatment of competing risks…the chapter on identifiability issues collects results, which are not much discussed in other books on survival analysis…the book is fun to read…" - Short Book Reviews of the ISI "Classical Competing Risks is self-contained and well written at a level accessible to graduate students and applied statisticians alike." - Journal of the American Statistical Association "…best described as a highly focused, extremely compact, introduction…The reviewed reliability concepts span hazard functions, maximum likelihood estimation of reliability model parameters, multivariate survival distributions, partial likelihood functions, and reliability model checking. This succinct and comprehensive tour of reliability is an important side benefit of the book…The author's writing style keeps the dryness of the mathematics from overwhelming the book. He maintains an honest appreciation of the limits of what he can achieve in a relatively small space. He sprinkles various personal comments and asides that, although not simplifying the mathematics, at least prevent the book from seeming strictly a core text. …a well-organized, enriching encouragement to learn more about a subject deserving of more widespread appreciation in the reliability community. - Joseph D. Conklin, U.S. Census Bureau in Technometrics, August 2002
