"A thoughtful, complete, and very readable approach to robust
engineering. It presents insights that correlate with those learned
at Ford while developing and executing Design for Six Sigma. Having
this book three years ago could've helped with that
effort."-David Amos, DFSS Deployment Director, Ford Motor
Company

Written by Anna C. Thornton, the well-known author who coined
the phrase "variation risk management," this comprehensive book
presents new methods and implementation strategies based on her
research of industry practices and her personal experience with
such companies as The Boeing Company, Eastman Kodak Company,
Ford Motor Company, Johnson & Johnson, and many
others. Step-by-step guidelines show how you
can implement and apply variation risk management to
real-world problems within the existing systems of an
organization.
