Statistics for Quality Control is a basic level study of statistics used in a production operations setting. It is primarily intended for students entering quality control or other industrial and operations careers. It covers introductory topics such as a brief background, measurements, and graphing techniques. It then moves on to the beginning statistics necessary to understand these practices commonly found in industry and ends with coverage of quality assurance issues along with some pertinent managerial practices associated with this topic.Daniel Jackson is an Associate Professor of Architectural and Manufacturing Sciences at Western Kentucky University.

The Northumbrians have been overlooked by British and global history, but they've made astonishing contributions to both. Dan Jackson sets out to recover this lost history, exploring the deep roots of Northumbrian culture-hard work and heavy drinking, sociability and sentimentality, militarism and masculinity-through centuries of border warfare and dangerous industry. He explains what we can learn about Northumbria's people from its landscape and architecture, and revisits the Northumbrian Enlightenment that gave the world the locomotive and the lightbulb. This story reaches right to the present day, as this extraordinary region finds itself caught between an indifferent south and an increasingly confident Scotland. From the Venerable Bede and the prince-bishops of Durham to Viz and Geordie Shore, this vital new history reveals a part of England with an uncertain future, but whose people remain as remarkable as ever.

Having barely seen each other in three decades, two friends impulsively decide to take a cross-country road trip. For one, the trip is a chance to take a few swats at a question that buzzes like an old bug in his postreligious soul, "What do I believe? Not just about God, but about morality, mortality, meaning, and the whole so-called spiritual side of life?" For the other, the journey is the culmination of a lifelong struggle to confront a buried demon and reunite with a family from whom he's been estranged for his entire adult life. What begins as a mundane drive becomes a quest for what really matters; a soul-searching, thought-provoking, oddly mythic, often hilarious, always human odyssey, as these two very different people join forces to keep a 1969 Volkswagen Beetle alive long enough to reach the distant shores of home.
