• 1. Introduction and definitions; 2. Quick start: replicate error basics; 3. Reading error; 4. Calibration error; 5. Error propagation; 6. Model fitting.

'This book would be an ideal text for an introductory uncertainty analysis course in any engineering discipline. It offers an excellent mix of theory and practice, with numerous engineering examples (using both Excel and MATLAB®) on every topic discussed. It also provides a large number of problems at the end of each chapter, something I find to be relatively uncommon among similar texts.' Jake Blanchard, University of Wisconsin, Madison
