3.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous amount of errors
The fact that this is a book on Six Sigma and printed by ASQ, to have numerous errors and typos, makes it even worse. Have they heard of proof reading.... I am also writing an email to the authors.

Otherwise, it is a good book, provides basic information and help in ASQ Certification Exam. I used it as one of the books during my preparation and was able to...

This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)

Otherwise, it is a good book, provides basic information and help in ASQ Certification Exam. I used it as one of the books during my preparation and was able to get the certification.

Please use an additional book to make sure you are not reading the "error" text.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst textbook ever, August 30, 2006
This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)
This textbook has the most mistakes I have ever seen in a textbook. How can ASQ (the "American Society for Quality") recommend this as a study guide??. I just took the SSBB exam and this book was not helpful for my preparation. The (simulated) exam questions are much more focused on calculations than the actual test. I could not even find some concepts, names and tools from the test in the glossary.

3.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive text but full of mistakes, August 16, 2005
This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)
In general, this book is a good overview of the topics needed to get Six Sigma certification. However, the large number of mistakes and typos are unacceptable. A lot of confusion is created by the poor text editing.
Just think about it, the book is printed by ASQ, Quality Press....they should up their quality before we up ours.

1.0 out of 5 stars poorly done, February 23, 2007
By 
This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)
This book was not helpful as a reference in the ASQ SSBB exam. (Go to the Indiana Society of Quality materials for a good reference.) It does not have the level of detail in subject areas to be a functional reference, and according to their own CD full of corrections and further reviews below, it is not helpful as a technical reference.

1.0 out of 5 stars one sigma handbook, October 15, 2005
By 
This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)
This book came with six pages of Errata. Even with that, I still found multiple mistakes throughout the book. This book about Six Sigma was written on the one sigma level. I would not recommend this book to anybody. You cannot trust this book!

1.0 out of 5 stars One of the worst six sigma reference, February 23, 2008
This review is from: The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook (Hardcover)
This is one of the worst written six sigma book I have read. It has neither depth or clarity

There are also many mistakes in the book. The formatting is also badly done. It is a poor effort and I am shock that this book is associated with ASQ.
