In 2017, the American Society for Quality published a compilation of Søren Bisgaard's articles that appeared over the years in several of the Society's journals. Bisgaard, who died in 2009, was an extremely productive and insightful scholar of modern industrial statistics and quality engineering. He was a professor of Technology Management at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and Professor of Business and Industrial Statistics at the University of Amsterdam.
Many of these articles had previously appeared in the Quality Quandaries column of Quality Engineering. The book is divided into four parts, as follows:
- Design and Analysis of Experiments
- Time Series Analysis
- The Quality Profession, and
- Healthcare Engineering.
The details of the book can be found in the References section below.
