 A Great Book For Insomniacs--It Will Put You to SleepApr 21, 2008
By F. Carlsen
"Silver Smith"
This book starts out discussing how powerful Six Sigma is and ways companies have used to realize huge cost savings. Unfortunately, it doesn't ever get rolling. Midway through it gets tedious and boring waiting for the author to get to some point where something in the way of techniques is actually discussed.
Better choice is Six Sigma Statistics Made Easy. It gets going from the start and actually teaches techniques. The essential statistical tools are not at all difficult.
As for Six Sigma: The Mcgraw-Hill 36 Hour Course, spend your money on any other book about Six Sigma techniques and processes.

SO MANY TYPOS!!!Nov 11, 2009
By Ashley C.
There are so many typo's and misprints in this book some topics are hard to get through. Some of the review questions don't have answers in the back, some are in the wrong order, and Chapter 7 Answers were skipped all together.
I would NOT recommend this book to anyone!

Poorly written, not worth the moneyAug 01, 2008
By W. RUSHING
"Book Hawk"
This book looked like it was put together in 36 hours. The tests at the end of each section is for material not covered in the section. The answers are questionable. Typos and misstatements can be found throughout the book. This book looks like it skipped the editing process. Highly recommend NOT buying this book.

 Typos galoreOct 17, 2009
By Glen L. Loveland
As other users have noted, there are a number of mistakes in the book. The book also says that if you pass the self-assessment they will give you a certificate. It's not true. All they do is email you the quiz results. As a consequence of this, I won't try other titles in the 36 hour series.
