Title: A great blending of leading techniques!
Product review: With so many books advocating single methodologies as if they were a single "silver bullet", Dr. El-Haik integrates many of the leading contemporary approaches in a complementary manner.The first third of the book does a creditable job of explaining the two axioms and many of the correlaries. It then goes on to show the relationship to Quality Function Deployment, Robust Engineering, the Quality Loss Function, Concept Development, TRIZ and reliability.This book is quite comprehensive, but not at all a quick read, as there are many mathematical illustrations that need to be studied to appreciate.A added plus for those who are anxious to get right into Axiomatic Design is a software download that can make the relationships easier to handle.
