Extending the Cox Model is aimed at researchers, practitioners, and graduate students who have some exposure to traditional methods of survival analysis. The emphasis is on semiparametric methods based on the proportional hazards model. The inclusion of examples with SAS and S-PLUS code will make the book accessible to most working statisticians
