Dull academic thread. Sorry.
SPRU 101 is about to start... So some thoughts on PhD reading suggestions.
Basic issue I'm struggling with is new PhDs need to build a *lot* of skills very quickly. What should they read?
So some suggested reading, comments welcome. 1/n

Starting with basic data skills. The books to just buy and slowly work through.
First the classic, and still the best.

This is new but will be a classic. Especially as it teaches basic programming on R with the really important and under emphasised skills in presenting data. I love how it makes you think about what readers need and want, not what you want to say.

This is another new one. Simple, clear, to the point. Links data skills to practical skills.
10/10 would recommend
