5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive,practical guide to SQC, 5 Sep 2000
A short while ago we were called upon by a major customer to present detailed test results of work carried out on their behalf.With large amounts of data to handle and analyse I rather quickly decided on a "statistical" approach to the problem.Fortunately,I came upon a reference to Montgomery's textbook and obtained a copy.It has rarely left my deskside since. Written so that anyone with A-level statistics can understand the theory underlying the SQC procedures described it is nevertheless as a superbly PRACTICAL guide to the subject that it really scores,giving clear and comprehensive reasons for the choice of particular statistical techniques as required.Where appropriate the plusses and minuses of these are detailed. The book concludes with two large sections on experimental design and sampling theory both of which further enhance the utility of this excellent book.
