    R Graphics (2nd ed.)
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 22, 2011*

This book provided a thorough treatment of the different systems for creating graphics in R.  It particularly emphasized grid graphics, and how to use low level plotting functions to create, extend, and enhance plots.  R Graphics was invaluable in helping me understand and edit (not a "how to"!!! this is not for beginners) the output from lattice and ggplot2.The book is divided into four major sections and there are ample examples of graphs and code.  Further, each chapter starts with a brief preview and ends with a short summary paragraph.  Overall, it was one of the clearest technical books I have read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it (I could not put it down all week :).Part I deals with "traditional" graphics.  It starts with an introduction to the high level functions that create typical plots like scatter plots, but also covers more esoteric types such as mosaic plots.  It quickly moves on to low level functions that draw points, text, etc.; how the plotting regions and margins work, and how all of this can be edited and customized.  By the end of the section, readers are introduced to all the tools to build their own custom plots complete with axes, annotations, legends, titles, even special shapes.Part II introduces the grid graphics system.  This is a massive section and nothing short of phenomenal.  Two chapters are dedicated to introducing the lattice and ggplot2 packages.  For readers interested in thoroughly learning either of those packages, I would suggest reading the book on 
  
Lattice: Multivariate Data Visualization with R (Use R)







  
  
     or 
  
ggplot2: Elegant Graphics for Data Analysis (Use R)







  
  
    .  The rest of the section (three chapters) is dedicated to the grid graphics model and how this can be used on its own to create plots and to edit and customize output from lattice and ggplot2.  This allows the convenience of the lattice/ggplot2 systems while giving all the power of the low level grid functions.  It also provides suggestions and guidelines for developing new grid graphical objects and functions (one of the main reasons I read the book).Part III briefly introduces the underlying graphical engine and the various devices available (e.g., pdf, jpeg).Part IV covers a host of addon graphics packages.  For example, drawing maps, 3D plots, interactive and dynamic plots.

    It is truly amazing these books on the open source software R cost ...
  

*by N***M on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 30, 2014*

This is a $7.98 book.It is truly amazing these books on the open source software R cost so much.The illustrious author could have published this book as a pdf file for $7.98.These two web sites provide far more information than the book:http://rgm3.lab.nig.ac.jp/RGM/R_image_list?page=2089&init=truehttp://www.bing.com/images/search?q=R+Plot+Gallery&FORM=RESTAB#aThis book assumes too much knowledge of R on the part of the reader. If the reader already know that much R, he/she does not need this book.The above web sites give the graphics and the associated R code to produce them.Also, they show how to do R programming the right way-- elegantly.
