1.0 out of 5 stars Work collapses with invalidation of premise, March 1, 1999

By A Customer

The book's field is nondestructive evaluation (NDE). NDE contains the methods which engineers use to detect flaws in materials.

The authors point out that NDE offers risks of unreliability and state correctly that risks are measured by probability. The remainder of the work takes probability theory as its premise, but here it errs.

A paper published recently (see "Erratic Measure," in NDE for the Energy Industry 1995. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, New York, NY) demonstrates that the methods of NDE violate an axiom of probability theory in relation to claims about NDE's reliability. In the light of this finding, the work collapses.
