[R-sig-eco] Zuur or Pinheiro Bates

2012-11-28 Thread Martin Weiser
Dear ecology fellows,
I need to work with mixed-effects models in more detailed way than what
M. Crawley described in the R-book. This book suited me well, but I feel
I need to go further in this topic. I am able to buy one book.
Would you recommend:
a, Zuur et al. (2009): Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology
with R
XOR
b, Pinheiro  Bates (2000/2009): Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-PLUS?

Thank you for your patience.
With the best regards,

I would also recommend considering Faraway (2006) Extending the linear
model with R
and the draft chapters of Doug bates' lme4 book:
http://lme4.r-forge.r-project.org/book/
The choice between Pinheiro  Bates, Zuur, and Faraway is part style and
part specific applications of mixed models: I need generalized linear mixed
models for longitudinal data, so I find Faraway more useful.
