Dear Bob:

For an all-round book that covers basics of R statistical programming, I 
recommend Dalgaard's Introductory Statistics with R. This should be 
adequate for your immediate needs. The most heavily thumbed R book on my 
shelf is Spector's 'Data manipulation with R', which will show you how to 
to all the fancy stuff you probably used to do in SAS's 'Data' step. I 
would strongly recommend, also, Sarkar's "Lattice: Multivariate data 
visualization in R" for using R to see your data.

Best,

Seth
