Statistical Methods for Quality Improvement by Thomas Ryan
This new edition offers the most comprehensive coverage of statistical quality control (also known as statistical process control). Recognizing that quality improvement requires more than just control charts, this new edition also updates previous information, revises the introduction and control chart topics, and provides new chapters on CUSUM/EWMA procedures and acceptance sampling.
"..the book is carefully written, well produced, and contains a wealth of information for the interested reader." (Computational Statistics and Data Analysis, Volume 35, No. 2, 28 December, 2000) This is a significant update of Professor Ryan's textbook from 1988. (Short Book Reviews, V21, N1, April 2001) "As a comprehensive statistics reference book for quality improvement, it certainly is one of the best books available." (Technometrics, February 2001)
THOMAS P. RYAN, PhD, is Director of Statistical Consulting in the Department of Statistics at Case Western Reserve University, and the author of Modern Regression Methods, available from Wiley.
