Description
Book SynopsisDesign and Analysis of Experiments with R presents a unified treatment of experimental designs and design concepts commonly used in practice. It connects the objectives of research to the type of experimental design required, describes the 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.
Drawing on his many years of working in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, industrial chemicals, and machinery industries, the author teaches students how to:
- Make an appropriate design choice based on the objectives of a research project
- Create a design and perform an experiment
- Interpret the results of computer data analysis
The book emphasizes the connection among the experimental units, the way treatments are randomized to experimental units, and the proper error term for data analysis. R code is u

"This is an excellent but demanding text. … This book should be mandatory reading for anyone teaching a course in the statistical design of experiments. … reading this text is likely to influence their course for the better."

"Thank you for writing your phenomenal book "Design and Analysis of Experiments with R". I'm teaching a new course this spring on experimental design and reinforcement learning. The students are graduate bioengineers, so I was having difficulty finding a text that blends theory, practice, and computation. Your book excels at all three. The first chapter I read clarified several topics and improved both my teaching and research. After testing a dozen DOE and RSM books, yours is the clear winner. I understand the enormous time that goes into a well-constructed textbook. I hope this message conveys my deep appreciation for your effort."

"In my opinion, this is a very valuable book. It covers the topics that I judge should be in such a book including what might be called the standard designs and more … it has become my go to text on experimental design."
