Quality by Experimental Design / Edition 3

For this third edition of his text, Barker (Center for Quality and Applied Statistics, Rochester Institute of Technology) retains his trademark conversational style and adds new material on inference, more realistic practice problems, and examples using modern computer solutions. He also integrates the philosophy and methods of robust design (the Taguchi Approach). He presents the mathematical aspects of statistical experimental design in an intuitive rather than a theoretical manner, emphasizing both the philosophy and the techniques for setting up experiments, and providing step-by-step guides to Minitab software and experimental design templates.
