Author D. H. Stamatis has updated his comprehensive reference book on failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA). This is one of the most comprehensive guides to FMEA and is excellent for professionals with any level of understanding. This book explains the process of conducting system, design, process, service, and machine FMEAs, and provides the rationale for doing so. Readers will understand what FMEA is, the different types of FMEA, how to construct an FMEA, and the linkages between FMEA and other tools. Stamatis offer a summary of tools/methodologies used in FMEA along with a glossary to explain key terms and principles. The updated edition includes information about the new ISO 9000:2000 standard, the Six Sigma approach to FMEA, a special section on automotive requirements related to ISO/TS 16949, the "robustness" concept, and TE 9000 and the requirements for reliability and maintainability. The accompanying CD-ROM offers FMEA forms and samples, design review checklist, criteria for evaluation, basic reliability formulae and conversion failure factors, guidelines for RPN calculations and designing a reasonable safe product, and diagrams, and examples of FMEAs with linkages to robustness.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Comprehensive but repetitive,
This review is from: Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA from Theory to Execution (Hardcover)
Stamatis has written the most comprehensive reference available on FMEA. However, much of the information in the book is repeated multiple times. The book does not contain much theory on FMEA and does not include the history of FMEA. This book does not serve as a good introduction to FMEA--Stamatis seems to assume that the reader already has a solid understanding of FMEA. If you want a helpful introduction to FMEA, I suggest you buy The Basics of FMEA by McDermott, Mikulak, and Beauregard. The book consists of 13 chapters. The first chapter covers the legal approach to liability. Chapter 2 provides a general overview of FMEA. Chapter 3 is a glossary of terms. Chapter 4 talks about how teams use FMEA. Stamatis asserts that there are four types of FMEA: system, design, process, and service and these types are covered in the next four chapters. Stamatis also includes chapters on the use of FMEA in these industries: electromechanical, computers, semiconductors, and medical devices. The remaining chapter discusses ISO 9000. This book might have been twice as helpful if it had been half as long.

Not worth the money...,
By Rai Chowdhary "Rai" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA from Theory to Execution (Hardcover)
While the material discussed is ok, I found it hard to justify the cost of the book. There seemed to be much redundancy in the book as well. It would have been wonderful if the author had finished what he wanted to say in half as many pages. As a seminar leader, instructor, and practitioner, I find it hard to recommend

Excelent,
This review is from: Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA from Theory to Execution (Hardcover)
This is the second time I bought the same book from Stamatis.
The first one I gave to one friend. He push me do give it as a gift. This second edition is far better.
