Statistical Practice in Business and Industry (Hardcover)

The various methods range from graphical approaches to generalised modelling, and from designed experiments to process control.

Methods are demonstrated across a wide range of real-life applications from fields including finance, e-commerce, micro-electronics, chemical and automotive engineering, component assembly, household goods and plastics manufacturing. Each topic is investigated by an expert in that field, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of how statistical methods benefit business and industry.
