I just discovered that NIST (National Insistute of Standards & Technology)
has a cool
, free , on-line reference- "Engineering Statistics Handbook" at
http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/index.htm
The eight sections are:
1)1. Exploratory Data Analysis
(histograms, box plots, normal probabilty plots, etc)
2. Measurement Process Characterization
(Calibration, Gauge R & R Studies, Uncertainty Analysis)
3. Production Process Characterization (PPC)
4. Process Modeling
5. Process Improvement (DOE)
6. Process or Product Monitoring and Control
(Univariate and Multivariate Control Charts, Time Series Models, Sampling)
7. Product and Process Comparisons
(Chi-square, t-Test, ANOVA)
8. Assessing Product Reliability
(Weibull. accelerated testing)
The chapters have tutorials on difficult math and case studies. There are comments in the margins, a full index, a glossary, FAQ, ....
You can download a printer-friendly version (~15 MB). You can download a full version and burn your own CD (~50 MB). (If you are clever, it even looks like you can extract just the pages you want.) They encourage you to make and distribute as many copies as you like!
If you deal with stats in any way, I would recomment this site!
