[Statistical inference based on the remaining lifetimes would be intuitively more appealing than the popular hazard function defined as the risk of immediate failure, whose interpretation could be sometimes difficult to be grasped. For example, when an efficacy of a new drug is concerned, it would be more straightforward to explain it as “if one with the similar genetic and environmental background like you takes this drug, it is expected, on average, that it will prolong your remaining life years by 10 years” rather than simply saying “the average hazard reduction in the treatment group will be 25\%". Common summary measures for the remaining lifetimes have been the mean and median residual lifetimes. This chapter presents a brief overview of statistical inference on the mean residual life.]
