Mastering Data Analysis with R

The book "Mastering Data Analysis with R" by Gergely Daróczi, published by Packt Publishing, is in print now, and I had a pleasure to be a technical reviewer of this book.

If you're a Data Scientist who's looking to master R, this book is a good choice. It's already available on the publisher's website and on Safari books online.
