Synopsis
This text is designed to teach engineers to think statistically so that data can be collected and used intelligently in solving real problems. Although traditional topics are covered, this edition takes a modern, data-oriented, problem-solving, process-improvement view of engineering statistics. The emphasis is on collecting good data through sample surveys and experiments and on applying the data to real problems.
