A must have in the engineer's bookshelf

I have used this book in college for my lab courses. In these courses I had to perform statistical analysis of the data. There was one little problem. I did not have formal training in statistics. Well, this book will tell you in a concise way what you need to know about statistical analysis of your data. The topic of uncertainty (Chapter 5) is extremely helful and to the point. If you want to know how to analyze your data accurately and don't have much time, this is the book you need to read.
