In this clear and practical text, Graeme Hutcheson, introduces the basics of data analysis using R, and its graphical user interface, R Commander (Rcmdr) to those who have never used the package before.

This book takes a hands-on, non-mathematical approach that recognizes that most students and new researchers find using statistics for the first time a daunting and difficult task.

Using screenshots and lots of easy-to-understand examples, and drawing on an extensive set of resources on a companion website, Hutcheson works through the basic tasks of data analysis. He provides readers with a 'system of analysis' that they can apply to their own data in a way that is easy to understand and put into operation so that they can get started with their own analysis quickly.

This book deals with data, descriptive statistics, data analysis, model diagnostics and graphics and provides a comprehensive illustration of many of the techniques that form the basis of introductory statistics courses.

Graeme Hutcheson has succeeded in making basic data analysis easy to understand and this book will be essential reading for anyone wanting to use R to analyze their data.
