"--Technometrics"
This new edition continues to provide the most current, proven
statistical methods for quality control and quality improvement
The use of quantitative methods offers numerous benefits in the
fields of industry and business, both through identifying existing
trouble spots and alerting management and technical personnel to
potential problems. "Statistical Methods for Quality Improvement,
Third Edition" guides readers through a broad range of tools and
techniques that make it possible to quickly identify and resolve
both current and potential trouble spots within almost any
manufacturing or nonmanufacturing process. The book provides
detailed coverage of the application of control charts, while also
