Competing Risks: A Practical Perspective竞争风险：实务分析 mobi 下载 网盘 caj lrf pdf txt 阿里云

The need to understand, interpret and ***yse competing risk data is key to many areas of science, particularly medical research. There is a real need for a book that presents an overview of methodology used in the interpretation and ***ysis of competing risks, with a focus on practical applicati*** to medical problems, and incorporating modern techniques. This book fills that need by presenting the most up-to-date methodology, in a way that can be readily understood, and applied, by the practitioner.
