A good book that guide you by the hand inside the world of survival analysis. If you are a beginner, you may need a simpler book to start, but once you have the concepts, you can even enjoy this book!!
By Ana
I used this book along with an online course on the same topic by Statistics.com. The book is extremely user friendly, my background being that of a physician with knowledge of basic stats and regression analysis, not a background of mathematics or advanced statistics. Plus having worked out examples in the text using codes covering most of the commonly used stats program made it appropriate for a hands-on learning format that I prefer. Thus, it makes one confident to apply the techniques in future projects involving survival analysis.
