A bit of sunning to spine and previous owner's signature to front wrapper, otherwise a very nice and fresh copy. [Shewhart's paper:] Pp. 1-22. [Slepian's paper:] Pp. 163-184.‎

‎First edition of Shewhart's important paper on statistical quality control.""Shewhart successfully brought together the disciplines of statistics, engineering, and economics and became known as the father of modern quality control. Shewhart was concerned that statistical theory serve the needs of industry. He exhibited the restlessness of one looking for a better way. A man of science who patiently developed and tested his ideas and the ideas of others, he was an astute observer of developments in the world of science and technology. In that respect, the field of quality control can claim a genuine pioneer in Shewhart."" (Berger, Roger W. The Certified quality engineer handbook, 2002, P. 55).Most of Shewhart's papers were keept unpublished but implemented in the Bell Laboratories. The present paper was written in 1935 and it's techniques were put into practice immediately after it was, however, first published for a wider audience with the present article in 1958.The issue also includes the first edition of SLEPIAN'S groundbreaking paper on fluctuations of random noise. His analysis has exercised influence in measuring and analyzing back ground noise from space and, more exotic, analysis signals from outer space in search for extra-terrestrial aliens.
