EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN by Bowerman
This book is a concise and innovative book that gives a complete presentation of the design and analysis of experiments in approximately one-half the space of competing books. With only the modest prerequisite of a basic (non-calculus) statistics course, this text is appropriate for the widest possible audience including college juniors, seniors, and first-year graduate students in business and statistics, as well as professionals in business and industry. The book is able to accommodate this wide audience because of the unique, integrative approach that it takes to the teaching of experimental design. This text organizes and presents the two procedures for analyzing experimental design data - analysis of variance (ANOVA) and regression analysis - in a way that allows the student to move through the material more quickly and efficiently than usual, making the true advantages of both ANOVA and regression analysis more apparent. The book devotes most of its first three chapters to showing how to use ANOVA to analyze the type of experimental design data that it can appropriately be used to analyze: balanced (equal sample sized) data or unbalanced (unequal sample sized) data from one factor studies; balanced data from two factor studies (two-way factorials and randomized block designs); and balanced data from three or more factor studies. Chapter 3 includes a general ANOVA procedure for analyzing balanced data experiments.
O'Connell, Richard T.: - Richard T. O'Connell is associate professor of decision sciences at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. He has more than 35 years of experience teaching basic statistics, statistical quality control and process improvement, regression analysis, time series forecasting, and design of experiments to both undergraduate and graduate business students. He also has extensive consulting experience and has taught workshops dealing with statistical process control and process improvement for a variety of companies in the Midwest. In 2000, Professor O'Connell received an Effective Educator award from the Richard T. Farmer School of Business Administration. Together with Bruce L. Bowerman, he has written 16 textbooks. These include Forecasting and Time Series: An Applied Approach; Forecasting, Time Series, and Regression: An Applied Approach (also coauthored with Anne B. Koehler); and Linear Statistical Models: An Applied Approach. Professor O'Connell has published a number of articles in the area of innovative statistical education. He is one of the first college instructors in the United States to integrate statistical process control and process improvement methodology into his basic business statistics course. He (with Professor Bowerman) has written several articles advocating this approach. He has also given presentations on this subject at meetings such as the Joint Statistical Meetings of the American Statistical Association and the Workshop on Total Quality Management: Developing Curricula and Research Agendas (sponsored by the Production and Operations Management Society). Professor O'Connell received an M.S. degree in Decision Sciences from Northwestern University in 1973, and he is currently a member of both the Decision Sciences Institute and the American Statistical Association. In his spare time, Professor O'Connell enjoys fishing, collecting 1950s' and 1960s' rock music, and following the Green Bay Packers and Purdue University sports.
