Review
From the reviews:TECHNOMETRICS"…extensive, well organized, and well documented…The book is an elegant R companion, suitable for the statistically initiated who want to program their own analyses. For experienced statisticians and data analysts, the book provides a good overview of the basic statistical analysis capabilities of R and presumably prepares readers for later migration to S…The format of this compact book is attractive…The book makes excellent use of fonts and intersperses graphics near the codes that produced them. Output from each procedure is dissected line by line to link R code with the computed result…I can recommend [this book] to its target audience. The author provides an excellent overview of R. I found the wealth of clear examples educational and a practical way to preview both R and S.""The scope of the book, introductory statistics, is a very useful set of methods in parametric and non-parametric statistics up to logistic regression and survival analysis. … Where many constructs in R are very attractive for mathematical oriented users, e.g. matrices, Dalgaard succeeded in convincing me that with little extra effort they can be made very useful to less mathematically oriented people, e.g. by specifying row and column names, and proposing quite attractive ways to specify for example ‘subsets’ of rows and columns." (Dr. H. W. M. Hendriks, Kwantitatieve Methoden, Vol. 72B8, 2003)"R is an Open Source implementation of the well-known S language. It works on multiple computing platforms and can be freely downloaded. R is thus ideally suited for teaching at many levels as well as for practical data analysis and methodological development. This book provides an elementary-level introduction to R, targeting both non-statistician scientists in various fields and students of statistics. … Brief sections introduce the statistical methods before they are used. A supplementary R package can be downloaded and contains the data sets." (Zentralblatt für Didaktik der Mathematik, August, 2004)"This is a nice book on statistical methods and statistical computing in R, a language and environment for statistical computing and graphs: this dialect of the S language is available as free software through internet. … Explanation of statistical methods, together with an interpretation of statistical concepts, is the prevailing style of the text. They are illustrated by plenty of practical examples, all computed using R. This book will be useful for novices in applied statistics or in computing in R." (European Mathematical Society Newsletter, September, 2003)"The book is an elegant R companion, suitable for the statistically initiated who want to program their own analyses. For experienced statisticians and data analysts, the book provides a good overview of the basic statistical analysis capabilities of R … prepares readers for later migration to S. … I can recommend Introductory Statistics With R to its target audience. The author provides an excellent overview of R. I found the wealth of clear examples educational and a practical way to preview both R and S." (Thomas D. Sandry, Technometrics, Vol. 45 (3), 2003)"R is both a statistical computer environment and a programming language designed to perform statistical analysis and to produce adequate corresponding graphics. … The present book is … a very useful guide for introducing a number of basic concepts and techniques necessary to practical statistics, covering both elementary statistics and actual programming in the R language. The book is organized in 12 chapters and three appendices, each chapter ending with a beneficial section of proposed exercises." (Silvia Curteanu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1006, 2003)From the reviews of the second edition:“This review … roughly cover the introductory topics of a first year statistics course. The Introductory Statistics with R (ISwR) book is targeted for a biometric/medical audience. It covers more topics … like multiple regression and survival analysis and expects the reader to know about basic statistics. … include examples and graphs together with the R code to construct them. … The ISwR book is good for an academic and biometric audience.†(Wolfgang Polasek, Statistical Papers, Vol. 52, 2011)“This is a welcome addition to the new edition that will be appreciated by its users. … The new edition is well written, and the new materials are well incorporated. Like the first edition, this edition will continue to be useful to the target audience, and I can safely recommend it to them.†(Technometrics, Vol. 51 (2), May, 2009)

From the Back Cover
R is an Open Source implementation of the S language. It works on multiple computing platforms and can be freely downloaded. R is now in widespread use for teaching at many levels as well as for practical data analysis and methodological development. This book provides an elementary-level introduction to R, targeting both non-statistician scientists in various fields and students of statistics. The main mode of presentation is via code examples with liberal commenting of the code and the output, from the computational as well as the statistical viewpoint. A supplementary R package can be downloaded and contains the data sets. The statistical methodology includes statistical standard distributions, one- and two-sample tests with continuous data, regression analysis, one- and two-way analysis of variance, regression analysis, analysis of tabular data, and sample size calculations. In addition, the last six chapters contain introductions to multiple linear regression analysis, linear models in general, logistic regression, survival analysis, Poisson regression, and nonlinear regression. In the second edition, the text and code have been updated to R version 2.6.2. The last two methodological chapters are new, as is a chapter on advanced data handling. The introductory chapter has been extended and reorganized as two chapters. Exercises have been revised and answers are now provided in an Appendix. Peter Dalgaard is associate professor at the Department of Biostatistics at the University of Copenhagen and has extensive experience in teaching within the PhD curriculum at the Faculty of Health Sciences. He has been a member of the R Core Team since 1997.

R is a useful freeware that can represent a hurdle to students and/or professionals who do not have formal training in computer programming. This book helps to clear those hurdles, and introduces a solid foundation from which statistics users can build new tools for their specific analyses. The rest of this review is broken up for experienced and new users.****If you do not have a solid foundation in statistics, this book is not going to help you bridge that gap. Although the title is "Introductory Statistics with R" the author is clear that this is a book to learn how to program intro stats with R, and is not designed to teach any statistics tools. The author assumes you understand statistics and does not clarify statistics terms like p-value, test statistic, degrees of freedom, ANOVA, and the like. ****New to R:Although it may sound like a conundrum, the only way to learn a program is to program. Thankfully learning R can be easy, since the program is free, installs well on nearly all machines, and has detailed help files in various languages around the world. This is an excellent book for the R beginner, but I must stress the importance of ACTUALLY PROGRAMMING while you read this book. You CAN NOT read this book cover to cover and expect to learn R, programming doesn't work that way. This book can be a great resource for people who are brand new to R, but it requires hands on utilization of the source codes provided. Thankfully, this step is made that much easier for new users with a detailed explanation of how to obtain the ISWR package used with this text. Like everything in R, packages are free, and contain suites of functions and sometimes data. All the code in this book utilizes data from the ISWR package, so it will be easy to implement the code yourself and get the same results as the author.Familiar with R:Someone familiar with the notation in R can read this book cover to cover and find it enlightening. I had been programming in R for coursework in undergraduate statistics for four years before I found this text. It has a lot of useful data management code that people who taught themselves or learned for classes not dedicated to teaching the program will probably find useful. I found a lot of time-saving code that I wish I had known years ago!
I bought this book a little over a year ago when a friend and colleague insisted I learn the R system for our collaborative work. I am not a professional statistician, but an engineer and researcher who needs and uses statistics in the course of my professional work.I found this book approachable and informative from the non-professional perspective. (That is, from the viewpoint of a non-statistician.) I found enough examples to guide me through the process of bringing my datasets into the R environment, and then enough guidance to get me through the initial analyses necessary to make meaningful use of the statistical computations contained within the R system.There are many other texts that treat the kinds of advanced statistics capability in the R system. Those are also necessary references for the non-statistician. There are also other texts on using the graphics subsystem present in R (which is substantial). Those references are also useful for preparation of reports and other written material.But, this text is most useful as a primer for the system and is a first source on my shelf when I need to know the "how-to" of the basics. Then, if my needs are more substantial than those addressed by Dalgaard, I'll turn to other references.
I purchased this book after wading through the R help files for what seemed like hours. I was looking for a simple and straightforward guide that I could refer to for the basic operations of R. I am currently teaching myself C++ and learning how to interact with the Unix environment, but have very little experience with statistical programming. Therefore, I was looking for an accessible reference to help me become more comfortable with the R environment. *Introductory Statistics with R* provides concise answers to the "new user" questions that inevitably arise when programming in a new environment. In addition to its role as a programming resource, Dalgaard provides very useful information about the statistical methods he describes. I find this feature very useful as well, as I can rarely recall all the details of various statistical procedures from memory. My only caution is that this is an *introductory* guide to R. You will not find instructions for most (if any) of the additional libraries available to R. That said, I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning how to use R for statistical analyses.
Despite the web, there are learning curves sufficiently steep that a well-organized book is the most effective introduction. However, too many of these introductions, particularly in programming and/or statistics are written with low content and high redundancy or with impenetrably high-density content. So, it is a rare sign of pedagogical mastery combined with the genuine confidence of the experienced practioner when an introductory book manages to achieve a balance that is just right.As I become more familiar with R, I still carry around this book in my briefcase for the occasional reread during which I uncover a nugget I had missed. When I have told this to my colleagues in computer science or bioinformatics, they immediately reveal that they share my enthusiasm for Dalgaard's work.Let's be clear: this is a book that walks you through introductory and highly useful statistics while introducing you to the most effective ways to use R to perform these biostatistical analyses. It is not a programming book, nor is that its intent.
