Dear R-Helpers: What other references are there on the capabilities of the survival5 package other than the help files and the chapter on survival analysis in every edition of Modern Applied Statistics with S? I'm thinking of something like "An Introduction to Survival Analysis in R" with worked examples that might complement or extend the chapter in MASS. Thanks, Spencer Graves
documentation for survival5?

Dear Spencer, There is a book by Therneau and Grambsch, Modeling Survival Data (Springer, 2000); Therneau is the author of the survival library for S-PLUS, ported to R. The book covers survival analysis in S-PLUS and SAS. Regards, John

Dear Spencer, On addition to John's suggestion, you might want to check Frank Harrell's "Regression modeling strategies" (Springer, 2001) which devotes several chapters to survival analysis. It includes discussion of both survival5 and Harrell's additions (in the Hmisc and Design packages). Best, Ram?n

Thanks for the note Ramon. The Therneau and Grambsch book goes into much more detail about survival analysis, especially time-dependent covariables, random effects, and multiple events. -Frank

THere's a book by Therneau and Grambsch called something like "survival analysis: extending the Cox model". By December there may be some R vignettes, since I'm teaching survival analysis in autumn quarter this year. -thomas
