Miller & Freund's Probability and Statistics for Engineers is rich in exercises and examples, and explores both elementary probability and basic statistics, with an emphasis on engineering and science applications. Much of the data has been collected from the author's own consulting experience and from discussions with scientists and engineers about the use of statistics in their fields. In later chapters, the text emphasizes designed experiments, especially two-level factorial design. The Ninth Edition includes several new datasets and examples showing application of statistics in scientific investigations, familiarizing students with the latest methods, and readying them to become real-world engineers and scientists. KEY TOPICS: Introduction; Organization and Description of Data; Probability; Probability Distributions; Probability Densities; Sampling Distributions; Inferences Concerning a Mean; Comparing Two Treatments; Inferences Concerning Variances; Inferences Concerning Proportions; Regression Analysis; Analysis of Variance; Factorial Experimentation; Nonparametric Tests; The Statistical Content of Quality Improvement Programs; Application to Reliability and Life Testing MARKET: For all readers interested in probability and statistics for engineers.
