Howdy,

I looked at the references in the R and S-Plus literature to find a 
good introduction/reference to GLM. When I then went to Amazon it 
seemed to me that all the recommended books are out of print.

Can anyone give me a recommendation which _available_ book to get?

I got the McCullagh & Nelder book right off the CRC Press website:

Look for the title 'Generalized Linear Models'.

Ragnar,

I had no problems in obtaining the book of Annette Dobson from
a local bookstore. It is quite condensed in my opinion and gives a good
introduction also for GLM-newbies (like me).

A problem will be the weakness of the Euro ...
