Hi Peter, I would recommend you the book "Introduction to Statistical Learning" by James et al.[1], which is a shorter and easier version of classical book "Elements of Statistical Leaning" by Hastie et al. The book has nice examples in R programming language which is also described in sufficient detail. And finally, the book is free so you can grab a copy from the authors http://www-bcf.usc.edu/~gareth/ISL/
