Editorial Reviews A step-by-step guide to statistical problem solving, capability analysis, and control charts, focusing on application of statistical methods in process control rather than in-depth supporting statistics. Includes chapter introductions and review problems and answers, a glossary, and reference appendices of tables and sample plans. This second edition contains expanded information on short run charts, regression and correlation analysis, and testing variances. For engineers, machinists, inspectors, and quality managers.
