Publication Date: 9/26/2008
Catalog #: C9470
ISBN: 9781584889472
Number of Pages: 576

With an emphasis on explaining how and why statistical methods are  
used to analyze data, An Introduction to Statistical Inference and its  
Applications with R introduces several important procedures: one and  
two sample location problems, one way analysis of variance, and simple  
linear regression. The book presents numerous applications and  
supporting datasets throughout along with historical background to  
illustrate the material. Offering a modern approach that focuses on  
the interpretation of data, it features an appendix that provides  
instruction on the use of R as well as datasets and simulation. In  
addition, R code is available for download on the web.

USA
Publication Date: 7/11/2008
Catalog #: C6367
ISBN: 9781420063677
Number of Pages: 328

The Bioconductor Project was initiated in 2001 to provide a resource  
of R packages that specifically address bioinformatics problems.  
Written by the leader of this project and the original developer of  
the R software, Robert Gentlemen, Bioinformatics with R provides an  
overview of techniques to develop R programming skills for  
bioinformatics. The book presents comprehensive coverage of a broad  
range of key topics, including R language fundamentals, object- 
oriented programming in R, foreign language interfaces, building R  
packages, handling different data technologies, and debugging. It  
includes a number of detailed illustrative bioinformatics examples as  
well as exercises to demonstrate techniques.

Publication Date: 4/9/2008
Catalog #: C8911
ISBN: 9781584888918
Number of Pages: 728

Designed for an intermediate undergraduate course, Probability and  
Statistics with R shows students how to solve various statistical  
problems using both parametric and nonparametric techniques via the  
open source software R. It provides numerous real-world examples,  
carefully explained proofs, end-of-chapter problems, and illuminating  
graphs to facilitate hands-on learning.

Introduction to Probability with R
Kenneth P. Baclawski, North Eastern University, Boston, MA, USA
Publication Date: 1/24/2008
Catalog #: C6521
ISBN: 9781420065213
Number of Pages: 384

Based on a popular course taught by the late Gian-Carlo Rota of MIT,  
with many new topics covered as well, Introduction to Probability with  
R presents R programs and animations to provide an intuitive yet  
rigorous understanding of how to model natural phenomena from a  
probabilistic point of view. Although the R programs are small in  
length, they are just as sophisticated and powerful as longer programs  
in other languages. This brevity makes it easy for students to become  
proficient in R.
