Modern Applied Statistics with S by W.N. Venables, B.D. Ripley.

S is a powerful environment for the statistical and graphical analysis of data. It provides the tools to implement many statistical ideas that have been made possible by the widespread availability of workstations having good graphics and computational capabilities. This book is a guide to using S e...
