This concise book for engineering and sciences students emphasizes modern statistical methodology and data analysis. APPLIED STATISTICSFOR ENGINEERS AND SCIENTISTS is ideal for one-term courses that cover probability only to the extent that it is needed for inference. Theauthors emphasize application of methods to real problems, with real examples throughout. The text is designed to meet ABET standards andhas been updated to reflect the most current methodology and practice.
