Saang-Yoon,

The Faraway book you refer to was written before lme4 was changed so
certain chapters (the mixed modelling ones, 8 to 10) had to be changed.
There is an errata on the book website (
http://www.maths.bath.ac.uk/~jjf23/ELM/) which provides new code and output
for the relevant chapters.

>From an ecological perspective, but probably others aswell, Zuur et al's
Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology with R is good. It covers a
wide variety of issues and gives R code throughout. They are also
publishing a sequel (I think its a sequel at least) to it in a week or so
on zero inflated models.

Hope that helps,

Alan
