Synopsis
This book illustrates basic statistical concepts with extensive applications in engineering and scientific contexts. The book includes optional theoretical exercises, allowing readers who choose to emphasize theory to do so with requiring additional materials. The fourth edition contains SAS and MINITAB computer printout results for all analyses performed?plus new exercises based on magazine and journal articles and news reports. KEY TOPICS: A section on "Detecting Normal Distributions" (Chapter 5) gives readers insights on when it is reasonable to assume that underlying data is normally distributed. There is a comprehensive example on model building (Chapter 13) and emphasis on the regression approach to a Nova (also presents the traditional approach). There are two sections discussing principles of experimental design, i.e., noise-reducing and volume-increasing design, a section on "Total Quality Management" and coverage of statistical computing. There are optional, calculus-based theoretical exercises, and real data sets, extracted from scientific studies, are provided in an appendix. Numerical answers to all applied exercises are included in an appendix?giving readers immediate feedback on their work.

Review
"A salient feature of this book is the clarity with which many statistical concepts have been presented. A very nice blend of theory and applications. It contains a wealth of illustrative examples and problem sets. All the important concepts havae been highlighted; real-life data has been extensively used throughout the book. Students will find it very appealing and u seful on their way to learning the basic statistical concepts and tools." - Dharam V. Chopra, Wichita State University "I like the problems in M&S-4 because they are all based on engineering applications of probability and statistics. I especially like the problems at the end of chapter because students have to think more to solve them. I favor problems that require calculations because engineers are problem solvers". - Charles H. Reilly, University of Central Florida "I think this text is one of the best I have seen when it comes down to real data sets. The authors successfully included small and large real data sets from various real world problems in engineering, mathematical sciences, and natural sciences." - Dr. Edward J. Danial, Morgan State University

Hardback. Condition: Fair. Prepare Your Students for Statistical Work in the Real World Statistics for Engineering and the Sciences, Sixth Edition is designed for a two-semester introductory course on statistics for students majoring in engineering or any of the physical sciences. This popular text continues to teach students the basic concepts of data description and statistical inference as well as the statistical methods necessary for real-world applications. Students will understand how to collect and analyze data and think critically about the results. New to the Sixth Edition Many new and updated exercises based on contemporary engineering and scientific-related studies and real data More statistical software printouts and corresponding instructions for use that reflect the latest versions of the SAS, SPS, and MINITAB software Introduction of the case studies at the beginning of each chapter Streamlined material on all basic sampling concepts, such as random sampling and sample survey designs, which gives students an earlier introduction to key sampling issues New examples on comparing matched pairs versus independent samples, selecting the sample size for a designed experiment, and analyzing a two-factor experiment with quantitative factors New section on using regression residuals to check the assumptions required in a simple linear regression analysis The first several chapters of the book identify the objectives of statistics, explain how to describe data, and present the basic concepts of probability. The text then introduces the two methods for making inferences about population parameters: estimation with confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. The remaining chapters extend these concepts to cover other topics useful in analyzing engineering and scientific data, including the analysis of categorical data, regression analysis, model building, analysis of variance for designed experiments, nonparametric statistics, statistical quality control, and product and system reliability.
