Abstract
It is likely that readers of this book would expect a chapter on quality to discuss various analytical techniques (biological, chemical, mathematical, microbiological, physical, etc.) that are in common use in laboratories today. Twenty years ago that would probably have been acceptable. However, in the last two decades, ideas about quality have changed so much that it is more prudent to advise the reader of the latest philosophy, and of how it developed.
