5.0 out of 5 stars
another good book on response surfaces,
By
This review is from: Empirical Model-Building and Response Surfaces (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics) (Hardcover)
George Box and Norman Draper have written an outstanding text on model building and response surface methods. This is an excellent companion to Box's text with Stu Hunter and William Hunter on experimental designs "Statistics for Experimenters". Another excellent, more recent and detailed account of response surface methods can be found in the book by Montgomery and Myers.
