The book itself is written in a self-paced tutorial style in easily digestible chunks integrating descriptions of underlying methodology, with data analysis and R code. The organization of the book is well thought through. The flow of the book is problem driven rather than driven by the underlying statistical theory . . . the second edition is more polished in terms of the figures used, R code and output display and a crisper typesetting of equations.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cem\u003eJohn T.

It clearly demonstrates the different methods available and in which situations each one applies. It covers almost all of the standard topics beyond linear models that a graduate student in statistics should know. It also includes discussion of topics such as model diagnostics, rarely addressed in books of this type. The presentation incorporates an abundance of well-chosen examples … this book is highly recommended …\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cem\u003eBiometrics\u003c\/em\u003e, December 2006\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It has been a great pleasure to review this book, which delivers both a readily accessible and reader-friendly account of a wide range of statistical models in the context of R software.

The second editionof the book takes advantage of the greater functionality available now in R, and substantially revises and adds several new topics.\"\u003cbr\u003e—Andrzej Galecki, \u003cem\u003eThe International Biometric Society\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction.
