This example and exercise-rich exploration of both elementary probability and basic statistics places a strong emphasis on engineering and science applications, many using data collected from the author's consulting experience. In later chapters, there is an emphasis on designed experiments, especially two-level factorial design. Includes a vast, rich collection of problem sets, current coverage of two-level factorial design, curve fitting, and case studies in the first two chapters. For those who are interested in Probability and Statistics or Applied Statistics for engineering, physical science, and mathematics.

From the Publisher:

An example-rich exploration of both elementary probability and basic statistics -- with emphasis on their application in engineering and the sciences.

From the Back Cover:

This example-rich exploration of both elementary probability and basic statistics places a strong emphasis on engineering and science applications. Coverage explores the treatment of data; probability; probability distributions; probability densities; sampling distributions; inferences concerning means; inferences concerning variances; inferences concerning proportions; nonparametric tests; curve fitting; analysis of variance; factorial experimentation; the statistical content of quality-improvement programs; and applications to reliability and life testing. For practicing engineers or anyone interested in probability and statistics.
