From the Back Cover:

This new edition of Statistical Process Control and Quality Improvement introduces readers to the basic concepts and applications of Statistical Process Control (SPC). Providing a "math friendly" environment, the text gives readers a solid foundation in control charts—including setting scales, charting, interpreting, and analyzing process capability. Problem-solving techniques are emphasized, and all learning is linked to the implementation of SPC in the workplace.

Some features of the new edition include:

  • An expanded discussion of linear regression.
    • Presents readers with the application of the linear regression mode on statistical calculators.
  • Expanded discussion of Walter Shewhart's contribution to control charts.
    • Provides readers with a better understanding of the concepts.
  • Lab exercises for each chapter.
    • Offers hands-on opportunity to practice and apply learned concepts.
  • Informational boxes.
    • Highlights definitions and formulas without interrupting the flow of the text, making the text easier to use and to study from.
  • Increased number of exercises, with answers to odd-numbered questions at the end of the book.
    • Gives readers an increased opportunity to solve problems and check results, and to thereby master the course material.
