""". . . this book contains an excellent theoretical coverage of interval censored data, and deals with other topics relevant for survival analysis in a comprehensive but summarized way."" —Victor Moreno, International Society for Clinical Biostatistics ""This book provides a new outlook on survival analysis methods by emphasizing the application of the statistical methods for biological and genetic problems. … this book covers several important and specific topics, which have been rarely covered in other conventional survival textbooks. Throughout this book, many advanced statistical methods are well specified so that biostatisticians and researchers in the fields of medicine and genetics can easily understand and apply these methods to complicated survival data with high-dimensional covariates."" —Seungyeoun Lee, Biometrics ""The great strength of the book lies in its comprehensive treatment of both classical and novel methods, covering almost all aspects of survival analysis that biostatisticians are confronted with in everyday practice. The text is very well organised, and both writing style and notation are remarkably homogeneous. The readers will appreciate the inclusion of clinical studies as applications in the book."" —P. G.
