Now in its 6th edition, this bestselling professional reference has helped over 100,000 engineers and scientists
with the success of their experiments.
Douglas Montgomery arms readers with the most effective approach for learning how to design, conduct, and analyze
experiments that optimize performance in products and processes. He shows how to use statistically designed experiments
to obtain information for characterization and optimization of systems, improve manufacturing processes, and design
and develop new processes and products. Readers will also learn how to evaluate material alternatives in product
design, improve the field performance, reliability, and manufacturing aspects of products, and conduct experiments
effectively and efficiently.
