"Before this book, I've tried two other R programming books. So far this one is the best at explaining the concepts of R. I'm looking to use R to analyze baseball stats and trivia." — Sep 18, 2024 04:03PM

"My last review on page 51 talked about how the book is packing too much information into a dense format, making it challenging to understand all the various data structures and methods of R. I was tempted to go back and re-read the first 51 pages, so I really understand how R works. But instead I pressed on.
The next ten pages (51-61) give more examples of how to use R, and it's getting easier to understand." — Feb 14, 2024 02:20PM

“The typical assumption of most books on church and ministry — even those written more recently in the missional church field — is the idea that the church’s job is to grow. A healthy church is a church that grows bigger. My argument is that this assumption is built not on the gospel but on the American narrative.”
