I am just having a look at Spoetry:  a 400 odd page book on S
available as a pdf.  At a cursory glance it looks pretty good,
although it is very S+ orientated.  Probably worth the money...

It'll keep me going until Prof Ripley's book is available at least.

I can not remember exactly what the url is but the trail is
CRAN->statlib->HMISC (.edu somewhere)->resources->spoetry

If you cannot find it I'll have another look
