520 _aThe fourth edition of Statistics for Business and Economics finds the application of statistics to business and economic problems in the midst of a number of significant changes. The availability of microcomputers with a wide range of statistical software has dramatically affected the amount of time we spend teaching computational formulas. The use of statistical quality control in American industry is perhaps the fastest-growing application of statistics in any area. The same corporate structure which nearly 40 years ago forced W. Edwards Deming to take his revolutionary ideas to Japan has welcomed him back as a conquering hero. Deming and his disciples are in constant demand in both academic and corporate circles, and the impact of their philosophy on the statistical education of business students is and will be profound.
