Handbook of Statistical Analyses using R

Torsten Hothorn, Brian S. Everitt

"... a handy primer for using R to perform standard statistical data analysis. ... students, analysts, professors, and scientists: if you are looking to add R to your toolkit for analyzing data statistically, then this book will get you there." -Kendall Giles on his blog, September 2014 Praise for the Second Edition: "I find the book by Everitt and Hothorn quite pleasant and bound to fit its purpose. The layout and presentation [are] nice. It should appeal to all readers as it contains a wealth of information about the use of R for statistical analysis. Included seasoned R users: When reading the first chapters, I found myself scribbling small lightbulbs in the margin to point out features of R I was not aware of. In addition, the book is quite handy for a crash introduction to statistics for (well-enough motivated) nonstatisticians." -International Statistical Review (2011), 79 "... an extensive selection of real data analyzed with [R] ... Viewed as a collection of worked examples, this book has much to recommend it. Each chapter addresses a specific technique. ... the examples provide a wide variety of partial analyses and the datasets cover a diversity of fields of study. ... This handbook is unusually free of the sort of errors spell checkers do not find." -MAA Reviews, April 2011
