[R] GAMS and Knots

[Andrew Robinson]

Hi Kathryn,

I very warmly recommend Simon Wood's book on the subject.  Here is a
link to the book information on Amazon (about which no recommendation
should be inferred!)

http://www.amazon.com/Generalized-Additive-Models-Statistical-Science/dp/1584884746/sr=8-2/qid=1164758688/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/103-6675834-9672605?ie=UTF8&s=books

Cheers

Andrew
