R Introductory Books

[ed.goodwin]

A few people at the meeting last night wanted me to post a list of the
books that I found useful while learning r.

The primary references that I use regularly are:
"Data Manipulation with R" by Phil Spector
http://www.amazon.com/Data-Manipulation-Use-Phil-Spector/dp/0387747303/ref=sr_1_1?s=gateway&ie=UTF8&qid=1285860000&sr=8-1

"Introductory Statistics with R" by Peter Dalgaard
http://www.amazon.com/Introductory-Statistics-R-Computing/dp/0387790535/ref=sr_1_1?s=gateway&ie=UTF8&qid=1285860048&sr=8-1

"R in a Nutshell" by Joseph Adler
http://www.amazon.com/R-Nutshell-Desktop-Quick-Reference/dp/059680170X/ref=sr_1_1?s=gateway&ie=UTF8&qid=1285860105&sr=8-1

"ggplot2: Elegant Graphics for Data Analysis" by Hadley Wickham
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_7?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=ggplot2&x=0&y=0&sprefix=ggplot2

Also, the Revolution blog is a good place to keep track of the R
community

Hope that helps,
