Title: Quality by experimental design
First published: 1985
Description: Combining proven statistical procedures with practical insights into planning experiments, this thoroughly updated Second Edition takes the design of experiments beyond the mathematical model and into the area of product design optimization - introducing experimentation systems that assure maximum quality of information from the earliest prototype stages of design to the finished product.

Elucidating a structure for experimentation that reduces excess expenditure of resources, Quality by Experimental Design, Second Edition emphasizes the basic philosophy behind experimental design and the organizational aspects necessary to carry out both large- and small-scale endeavors ... offers helpful summaries of key concepts, edifying end-of-chapter problems, and complete step-by-step examples for all methods and techniques covered ... integrates the robust design methodology introduced by Taguchi as a natural part of the design effort ... establishes a criterion for measurement variables as well as subjective responses ... presents the mathematical aspects of statistical experimental design in an intuitive rather than a theoretical manner ... and more.
