[R-sig-eco] Good Book for learning R

[Glen A Sargeant]

For a relatively concise and painless introduction, I suggest reading 
Dalgaard's "Introductory statistics with R," then the introductory 
material in Venables and Ripley, "Modern Applied Statistics with S."

Once you have a good grounding in the basics, you may find most help in 
topic-specific materials.  See the R website for a lengthy list of books 
and other resources.

 I have only used R a little  bit, and I am looking for a good,
comprehensive
   book on R, but one that is approachable for a novice like myself.
   Any suggestions?
   Thanks,
   Jeri
