If you had just one book on R to buy...

This is quite a common question.  Within R, try

RSiteSearch('one good book for R') 

and follow the threads ......

Hi,

I am starting a new job as a study analyst for a social 
science research unit. I would really like to use R as my 
main tool for data manipulation and analysis. So I'd like to 
ask you, if you had just one book on R to buy (or to keep), 
which one would it be ? I already bought the Handbook of 
Statistical Analysis Using R, but I'd like to have something 
more complete, both on the statistical point of view and on R usage.

I thought that "Modern applied statistics with S-Plus" would 
be a good choice, but maybe some of you could have 
interesting suggestions ?

Thanks in advance,

--
Julien
