Résumé

The survival analysis has become an increasingly active and very important area of research. This is clearly evident from the large body of literature that has been developed in the form of books, volumes and research papers. In addition, several conferences, workshops and short courses have been conducted all over the world during the past two decades. This is the reason we felt that it is indeed a right time to dedicate a volume in the Handbook of Statistics series to highlight some recent advances in both theory and applications in the area of survival analysis.

With this specific purpose in mind, we solicited articles from leading experts working in the area of survival analysis from both theoreticians and practitioners. This, in our opinion, has resulted in a volume with a nice blend of articles (40 in total) highlighting theoretical, methodological and applied issues in survival analysis.
