Quality Engineering Handbook

by Thomas Pyzdek

Formerly called The Complete Guide to the CQE, this deluxe hardcover book covers 100% of the ASQ Body of Knowledge for the Certified Quality Engineer. Co-published by Quality Publishing & Marcel Dekker, this book was updated in October 1999  to include the latest Body of Knowledge. Use this book to prepare for the CQE exam and as a resource in your professional library.

"The author set out to cover all of the Certified Quality Engineer body of knowledge. He has achieved that objective. More important he has compiled all of the basic information required by a quality engineer on a daily basis. I intend to place the book within easy reach and expect to refer to it frequently. I am a fan of Juran’s, Quality Control Handbook, but I expect that this book will replace much of my reliance upon Juran’s excellent handbook...Tom Pyzdek has done it again. "

Eugene M. (GENE) Barker, CQE, Boeing Technical Fellow, The Boeing Company, April 2000 Quality Press Publications review.

"With everything this book offers, it is a must read for anyone preparing for the ASQ certification exam. It is well written and can be used as a standalone resource for quality engineering information."

Sohail Anwar, Quality Progress review, September 1997, Penn State Altoona.

"I found the material easy to read at a university undergraduate level. Overall, the level of technical sophistication targeted for the engineering community ranges from elementary to moderate. Topics covered include general knowledge, conduct and ethics: quality practices and applications statistical principles and applications; product process and material control; measurement systems; and safety and reliability."

Daniel Speck, Carleton Technologies, Inc. Technometrics review, November 1996
