About this book
Reviews
"Extremely useful to meteorologists and to anyone interested in measurement errors"
(MEASUREMENT SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY)
"I suggest that every technical library should own a copy of Measurement Errors. Serious experimentalists whose interests are broad will surely want to examine the book with the intent of buying it".
