Product Description
Real Engineering Situations, Real Engineering Data


With Montgomery and Runger's best-selling engineering statistics text, you can learn how to apply statistics to real engineering situations. The text shows you how to use statistical methods to design and develop new products, and new manufacturing systems and processes. You'll gain a better understanding of how these methods are used in everyday work, and get a taste of practical engineering experience through real-world, engineering-based examples and exercises.


Now revised, this Fourth Edition of Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers features many new homework exercises, including a greater variation of problems and more computer problems.

Key Features
* The text treats all topics in a way that reflects today's engineering realities. In the probability chapters, the authors emphasize engineering-specific examples, rather than counting methods or artificial applications such as gambling.
* Examples and exercises throughout the text use real data and real engineering situations.
* Coverage of probability is lively and interesting. It is complete but concise so as not to take over the content of the entire text.
* Thorough coverage of regression modeling, design of engineering experiments, and statistical process control from experts in these topics makes the book especially useful as a reference.

Product Reviews:
  Very Dissappointed 
The book chooses only a select few of the odd questions to answer. The answers that were provided were thorough and helpful.
  One of the best statistic books I've ever seen! 
I bought this book for my statistic class. this book is great. Examples are easy to follow and the theory is easy to read.
  Few Problems 
Not enough solutions were selected to help me out for the class of Statistics that I was taking. Instead of every odd problem it was more like one out of every 5 or 6 problems.
  nice book ( port3446 )
This book covers almost everything useful about statistics and probability. It has good examples, good explanations and good applications to engineering problems. Useful for students, professors and profesionals.
  Not recommended for self study ( abed )
This book is not recommended for self study or distance courses. There are only sporadic answers to odd problems, most books of this type have answers for every odd problem. The student solution manual is even more worthless, some chapters have only 2 or 3 worked problems per chapter. Learning statistics with this book in a distance education course is really more painful than it should be. If you have to get this book, do not waste your money on the student solution manual.
This book may be a good reference to someone who already knows statistics, but to someone learning, especially without the benefit of lectures, the description and examples are way too sparse.
