Tools of Total Quality: An introduction to statistical process control

This text meets the urgent need for a clear, concise introduction to the principles of statistical process control (SPC). The coverage has been deliberately restricted to the essential elements of SPC and the treatment of the subject is direct, practical and well organized. Nothing more than a very basic knowledge of statistics is assumed, making the book accessible to all those involved in quality control from technician level upwards. The book is up-to-date and designed to introduce students and practitioners to the basic concepts of SPC and the main mathematical techniques involved. This book should be of interest to senior undergraduate/graduate production engineer and quality professionals.
