The Optimal Design of Blocked and Split-Plot Experiments (Lecture Notes in Statistics, 164)

This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the design of blocked and split-plot experiments.

The optimal design approach advocated in the book will help applied statisticians from industry, medicine, agriculture, chemistry and many other fields of study in setting up tailor-made experiments.

The book also contains a theoretical background, a thorough review of the recent work in the area of blocked and split-plot experiments, and a number of interesting theoretical results.
