A complete and up-to-date discussion of optimal split plot and
split block designs

Variations on Split Plot and Split Block Experiment Designs
provides a comprehensive treatment of the design and analysis of
two types of trials that are extremely popular in practice and play
an integral part in the screening of applied experimental
designs--split plot and split block experiments. Illustrated with
numerous examples, this book presents a theoretical background and
provides two and three error terms, a thorough review of the recent
work in the area of split plot and split blocked experiments, and a
number of significant results.

Written by renowned specialists in the field, this book
features:

* Discussions of non-standard designs in addition to coverage of
split block and split plot designs

* Two chapters on combining split plot and split block designs and
missing observations, which are unique to this book and to the
field of study

* SAS? commands spread throughout the book, which allow readers to
bypass tedious computation and reveal startling observations

* Detailed formulae and thorough remarks at the end of each
chapter

* Extensive data sets, which are posted on the book's FTP
site

The design and analysis approach advocated in Variations on Split
Plot and Split Block Experiment Designs is essential in creating
tailor-made experiments for applied statisticians from industry,
medicine, agriculture, chemistry, and other fields of study.
