Media reviews

"The book R Through Excel [...] offers a good entry for those just beginning with R through the familiar Microsoft Excel. [...] Will help those using Microsoft Excel on computers in MS Windows environments become more familiar with two programs designed to work with R. [...] All of the functions and many of the topics discussed [...] can be applied for independent R installations on Linux, Unix, or Apple computers. R is an intimidating but powerful program that assumes an intimate knowledge of data formats and terminology not familiar to many language testers. R Through Excel is a highly recommended first step into that program."
- Shiken: JALT Testing& Evaluation SIG Newsletter

 "Students, researchers, and others who wish to use R [...] . This book is essentially a manual for the RExcel software. [...] Most commonly a page consists of one or more screenshots showing how to use RExcel. The whole book is reproduced in color, on glossy paper. [...] Readers are guided through the menu system [...] to see how to carry out common statistical procedures. [...] For anyone wishing to learn RExcel this book would be a useful purchase."
- David J. Scott, International Statistical Review, Vol. 78 (2), 2010

"R Through Excel offers a concise introduction to statistical analysis for those with little prior experience in statistical software. The text provides a nontechnical introduction to the R programming language and the presentation is helpful for those who are averse to syntax commands. [...] an excellent manual to have on the shelf for anyone that is interested in integrating R and Excel. [...] For those in academia who teach introductory statistics and want to use R, this text provides a gentle manner for doing so."
- Philip Okoth, The American Statistician, Vol. 65 (4), November, 2011
