Originally the analysis was concerned with time from treatment until death, hence the name, but survival analysis is applicable to many areas in addition to mortality, such as recidivism or the efficacy of drugs. The techniques can also be used in engineering and quality control (e.g. how long is a particular component likely to last?).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Arranged in an A-Z format, \u003ci\u003eSurvival and Event History Analysis\u003c\/i\u003e edited by Niels Keiding and Per Kragh Andersen contains 96 articles written by over 60 distinguished authors.
