Abstract
We introduce standard mixture models and standard mixture designs as are well known in the literature (vide Cornell2002). Some of the less known models are also introduced briefly. Next we explain the frameworks of exact and approximate [or, continuous] mixture designs. We mention about known applications of mixture experiments in agriculture, food processing, and pharmaceutical studies. We also provide a chapter-wise brief summary of the contents covered in the monograph.
