Faraway J.J. Linear Models with R

Chapman & Hall/CRC, 2004. - 240 pages.This textbook focuses on the practice of regression and analysis of variance. Readers will learn which methods are available and the various situations in which they can be applied. Numerous examples clarify the use of the techniques and demonstrate what conclusions can be made. The author places less emphasis on mathematical theory, partly because some prior knowledge is assumed and partly because the issues are better tackled elsewhere. An interesting aspect of this book is the author's emphasis on statistical theory and qualitative aspects of the topic. He highlights the importance of data analysis and stresses its inportance through use of the inclusion of R software.
