Subject: [R] new book on R and S-PLUS Date: Fri, 07 Jun 2002 11:46:39 -0400 From: John Fox To: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch Dear R and S list members: I've just published a book entitled An R and S-PLUS Companion to Applied Regression. The book introduces R and S-PLUS in the context of linear and generalized-linear models, and assumes familiarity with -- or a simultaneous course or text on -- these topics. I thought that the book might be of interest to the members of these lists or to their students. More information is available on the web site for the book , where you will also find a variety of supporting materials, including the preface and table of contents of the book; scripts for the examples; and nine appendices briefly covering related topics such as nonlinear regression, nonparametric regression, Cox regression for survival data, and mixed-effects models. The book is published by Sage Publications; information about ordering it may be found on the Sage web site, at .
