Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Maintaining the reader-friendly features of its popular predecessor, this second edition illustrates fundamental principles and practices in statistical quality control for improved quality, reliability, and productivity in the management of production processes and industrial and business operations. Presenting the key concepts of statistical quality control in a simple and straightforward manner, this reference provides a solid foundation in statistical quality control theory and applications. Reflecting upon classic examples and case studies and recent industrial data, this resource explores how to develop solutions to real-world dilemmas in the manufacturing and service industries.

Book News Annotation:

Updating his father's 1979 introduction to the principles and practices of statistical quality control in industrial operations, Burr (founder of the consulting firm Rochester Quality Associates) retains as much of his examples, philosophy, and techniques as possible while bringing up to date the notation, language, and applications and adding discussions on process capability, establishment of realistic specifications, and additional methods of statistical control charting.
