This up-to-date survey of statistical quality control reviews basic probability and statistics, basic control chart principles (including cumulative sum procedures and multivariate charts), and provides insight into statistically designed experiments and related topics. It also reviews the use of statistics in quality control in the US and Japan, with a critical examination of Taguchi methods. The approach is conceptual rather than mathematical, making this book accessible to a wide audience. The text has been designed for statisticians, engineers, production and operations managers.
Just like another review, it's just a text I needed for school so no comment

This is the best book in statistical quality control. A very good start for undergraduates. However, problems are not suitable for mathematicians because they are very very simple. The logic behind quality control is best presented in this book. I wish the author can increase the number of problems in this book by adding some difficult excercises.
Excellent book, easy to read and understand

Well written book within 500 pages. Dr. Ryan has done a great job in presenting the material without much mathematical details. A good reference for any one from industry and can be good text for University.
