Everybody, thanks for your suggestions. I am planning to order at least these
two:
Peter Dalgaard _Introductory Statistics with R_
Andrew Gelman _Bayesian Data Analysis_
Also, while stumbling around amazon.com, I found this book:
Statistical Reasoning in Psychology and Education, 4th edition
by Edward W. Minium, Bruce M. King ISBN: 0471211877
This book looks perfect for me -- I can do math, learn R, etc, but WHY? Why
use one method and not another? Why structure a problem one way and not
another? These are the questions which really stump me.
So, has anybody read this book? Is there a similar book which is even better?
