PhD student reading list, suggestions wanted

Hi,

But above all, I would like her to use R whenever it's appropriate.
We have MASS and Dalgaard's introductory book in the library here, I'm
aware of "S Poetry", but what do you think would be the best start for
someone learning R in order to use it for doing data mining?

Not specifically for R, but a must-have for anyone going into data mining
area is "The Elements of Statistical Learning: Data Mining, Inference, and
Prediction", by Hastie et. al.
