The new edition of this "essential desktop reference book ...[that] should definitely be on your bookshelf" ( Technometrics ) features a newly reorganized approach to linear regression that promotes the understanding of theory and models concurrently, featuring newly-developed topics in the field and the use of software applications. It includes numerous exercises; graphics and computations developed using JMP software; a new chapter on recent developments with the distribution of linear and quadratic forms; and new topical coverage of least squares, the cell means model, and more.
