Statistics for Engineering and the Sciences (6th Edition) – eBook

Statistics for Engineering and the Sciences, 6th Edition, (PDF) is designed for a two-semester introductory course on statistics for students majoring in engineering or physical sciences. This popular textbook continues to teach students the basic concepts of data description and statistical inference and 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:

• Introduction of the case studies at the beginning of each chapter
• Many new and updated exercises based on contemporary engineering and scientific-related studies and actual data
• New section on using regression residuals to check the assumptions required in a simple linear regression analysis
• More statistical software printouts and corresponding instructions for use that reflect the latest versions of the SAS, SPSS, and MINITAB software
• 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

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 helpful in analyzing engineering and scientific data, including categorical data analysis, regression analysis, model building, analysis of variance for designed experiments, nonparametric statistics, statistical quality control, and product and system reliability.
