We live in the Information Age, and much of that information comes to us in the form of numbers. Before numerical information can be useful,however,
it must be analyzed, interpreted, and assimilated. Unfortunately, teaching the techniques for making sense of data has been neglected at all levels of our educational system. As a result, throughout our culture there is little appreciation of how to effectively use the volumes of data generated by business, government, and the media. This book is the remedy.
Readers report that this book has changed both the way they look at data and the very form of their monthly reports. It has turned arguments about the numbers into a common understanding of what needs to be done about them. These techniques and benefits have been thoroughly proven in a wide variety of settings. Read this book and use the techniques to gain the benefits for yourself and your organization.
168 pages. Hardback. 32 Examples, 16 Figures, 4 Appendices, and Index.

This internationally acclaimed textbook (often called the blue book) is widely used for teaching SPC and Continual Improvement techniques to those who work in manufacturing and process industries.
Wheeler and Chambers distilled over 60 years of practical experience into this book. W. Edwards Deming wrote in his foreword, “It is fitting to add my deep appreciation for the mathematical achievements of Dr. Wheeler. His understanding of theory, and its application, is guided by mathematical knowledge.”
Some of the unique material in this landmark text includes:
426 pages. Hardback. Over 64 Examples and Case Histories, 211 Illustrations, Graphs, and Figures.

It is no longer necessary to try fitting manufacturing examples into the service world! This book specifically addresses the complicated issues of using Statistical Tools in a service setting. Don Wheeler presents these concepts in the easy, reader-friendly style of “Understanding Variation” but with the in-depth content of “Understanding Statistical Process Control.” Newcomers to these ideas will find new and comprehensive concepts discussed with great clarity.
All of the case studies in this book are taken from actual companies. Readers discover where to start, what to measure, how to measure it, how to understand the measurements, and how to effectively use their business information and data.
More than just teaching how to create process behavior charts, this book takes you beyond understanding data to help you build a framework in which to use it effectively.
329 pages. Hardback. 212 Figures, 62 Tables, Over 100 Examples, Exercises & Answers, Glossary of Symbols, Appendices, Bibliography, and Index.

This best-seller describes the methods and techniques used in the design and analysis of experiments. It emphasizes the connection between the experiment and the model that the experimenter can develop from the results of the experiment. This new edition includes a wealth of coverage essential for statisticians, engineers, and scientists from many fields.

Design of Experiments (DOE) is a planned approach for determining cause and effect relationships that can be applied to any process with measurable inputs and outputs. DOE provides a statistical means for analyzing how numerous variables interact. In DOE Simplified – a comprehensive introductory text geared towards readers with minimal statistical background – the authors take a fresh and lively approach to learning the fundamentals. The book covers:
Also included is a free 180-day trial version of Design-Ease® DOE software.
Read, Success with DOE, an excerpt from the book published in the April 2000 issue of Quality Magazine.
For an explanation of F-tests, p-values and analysis of variance (ANOVA), see this excerpt from Chapter 2, “Simple Comparative Experiments”(p-value.pdf — 89KB).
