| Summary |
This book explains how to combine two widely known statistical methods--statistical design and statistical control--in a manner that can solve any business, government, or research problem quickly with sustained results. Because the problem-solving strategy employed is pure scientific method, it makes integration into any existing problem-solving or research method quite simple. The material is of use to executives, managers, statisticians, scientists, engineers, researchers, and all of their supervisors and employees. The book's 12 case studies examine the coupling of statistical design with economic control across a range of industries and problem types. Although mathematics (as advanced as needed to solve the problem) is used throughout the text, it is translated into simple arithmetic without any mathematical notation. The book limits references to a few essential texts and papers that readers can refer to as they become more experienced in statistical design and control. -- Edited summary from book |
