"(This book) is a welcome additon to the literature of quality. It deals with an area of quality technology that is underutilized, often misunderstood and sometimes abused. It will prove a worthwhile addition to the bookshelves of quality professionals."
Dr. Edward G. Schilling, Professor Emeritus, Rochester Institute of Technology
