Become your company's SPC problem solver! Learn how to use SPC effectively. Even if you have short runs, multiple head machines, cavity molds, continuous processes, automated processes, non-normal data, etc... Also learn about process capability indices (Cp, Cpk, etc.), gage R &amp; R studies, SPC for services, and much more. "It is similar in content to parts of The SQC handbook from AT&amp;T, but provides many more choices in the details for use." Excerpts have appeared in Quality Progress Magazine. "So for a book of diverse chapters, what is the recommendation? Would I hire this consultant, or suggest his book as a references Would I teach using it, or suggest it for self-study? Well, I might hire Thomas Pyzdek, for I fully believe he can teach people from his book. And I will use it for a reference. Pyzdek has demonstrated his depth of experience and taken care to list issues for the many techniques he has included here. The absence of student exercises limits the book's usefulness for self-study, but Pyzdek's stronger chapters are at a standard for which other SPC authors should strive." William D. Heavelin, Advanced Micro Devices Technometrics review, Nov. 1994 .
