(CRC Press: Boca Raton, FL) -- The new book, Design and Analysis of Experiments with SAS, is a culmination of author John Lawson’s many years of consulting and teaching. It provides practical guidance on the computer analysis of experimental data. The book connects the objectives of research to the type of experimental design required, describes the actual process of creating the design and collecting the data, shows how to perform the proper analysis of the data, and illustrates the interpretation of results.

Features

• Emphasizes the connection between experimental units, the way treatments are randomized to experimental units, and the proper error term for an analysis of data

• Uses SAS 9.2 throughout to illustrate the construction of experimental designs and data analysis  

• Provides uniform coverage on experimental designs and design concepts that are most commonly used in practice
