Synopsis

Based on real-world applications, Analyzing and Interpreting Continuous Data Using JMP: A Step-by-Step Guide, by Jose Ramirez, Ph.D., and Brenda S. Ramirez, M.S., combines statistical instructions with a powerful and popular software platform to solve common problems in engineering and science. In the many case studies provided, the authors clearly set up the problem, explain how the data were collected, show the analysis using JMP, interpret the output in a user-friendly way, and then draw conclusions and make recommendations. This step-by-step format enables users new to statistics or JMP to learn as they go, but the book will also be helpful to those with some familiarity with statistics and JMP. The book includes a foreword written by Professor Douglas C. Montgomery.

About this title

About the Author

José G. Ramírez, Ph.D., is an industrial statistician working closely with engineers and scientists to help them "make sense of data," through collaborative education, promoting statistical thinking, and JMP usage. He has been using JMP and SAS for more than fifteen years as a catalyst to turn data into knowledge. He received a degree in mathematics from Universidad Simón Bolívar in Caracas, Venezuela, and an M.S. in applied statistics and a Ph.D. in statistics, both from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where he was one of the founding members of the Center for Quality and Productivity Improvement. In 1998, at SUGI 23, he won the best contributed statistics paper, and in 2002 he was awarded the SAS User Feedback Award.

Review

"Analyzing and Interpreting Continuous Data Using JMP: A Step-by-Step Guide, by Jos G. Ramrez and Brenda S. Ramrez, is not just an introductory guide to statistical analysis; it is above all an excellent tool for quality and reliability engineers and for Six Sigma practitioners. The authors have made data analysis and interpretation very easy to do by using examples that are encountered on a daily basis in all industries. While it is very instructive and covers just about all the subjects applicable to all aspects of management, especially quality and reliability, the book keeps mathematical reasoning to a strict minimum. The many examples and the graphs that accompany each chapter make the book easier to understand by a wider audience. This is just an excellent book for beginners and a reference for practitioners!" -- Issa Bass "Senior Six Sigma Consultant with Manor House and Associates"
