Leeming J.J. Statistical Methods for Engineers

London: Blackie & Son Ltd., 1969. — 146 p.There are many books on statistical methods, but most of them seem to be written for economists and biologists, and an engineer who wishes to study the subject is to some extent handicapped by having to cope with unfamiliar terms, particularly in the examples. I have written this book with his needs, and especially those of the traffic engineer, very much in mind. Many of the examples are taken from studies on which I have been engaged during the course of my work on roads. For the traffic engineer, in particular, statistical methods are an essential tool, and he can hardly carry out his work without them.
The book is not a complete manual of the subject, and the underlying theory is outside its scope. A small bibliography is included, and some of the works in that include fuller bibliographies for further reference. The superior numbers after names in the text are references to the bibliography.
