[R-sig-eco] Zuur or Pinheiro& Bates

[Martin Weiser]

Dear ecology fellows,
I need to work with mixed-effects models in more detailed way than what
M. Crawley described in the R-book. This book suited me well, but I feel
I need to go further in this topic. I am able to buy one book.
Would you recommend:
a, Zuur et al. (2009): Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology
with R
XOR
b, Pinheiro & Bates (2000/2009): Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-PLUS?

Thank you for your patience.
With the best regards,
