NEW SERIES ANNOUNCEMENT and 
REQUEST FOR BOOK PROPOSALS 

Springer announces a series of books called 
	 UseR! 

edited by Robert Gentleman, Kurt Hornik, and Giovanni Parmigiani. 

This series of inexpensive and focused books on R will publish
shorter books aimed at practitioners. Books can discuss the use
of R in a particular subject area (e.g., epidemiology,
econometrics, psychometrics) or as it relates to statistical
topics (e.g., missing data, longitudinal data). In most cases,
books are to be written as combinations of LaTeX and R so that
all the code for figures and tables can be put on a
website. Authors should assume a background as supplied by
«Dalgaard s Introductory Statistics with R» so that each book does
not repeat basic material. Springer will supply a LaTeX style
file, all books will be reviewed and copyedited, and faster
production schedules will be used. 

To propose a book, please contact
