This post will eventually grow to hold a wide list of books on statistics (e-books, pdf books and so on) that are available for free download.  But for now we’ll start off with just one several books:

*   *  The Elements of Statistical Learning written by Trevor Hastie, Robert Tibshirani and Jerome Friedman. you can legally download a copy of the book in pdf format from the [authors website][]! [Direct download][] (First discovered on the “[one R tip a day][]” blog)
     *  [Statistics (Probability and Data Analysis)][Statistics _Probability and Data Analysis] – a wikibook. [Download link][]
     *  [Introduction to Statistical Thought][] by Michael Lavine.  The book is organized into seven chapters: “Probability,” “Modes of Inference,” “Regression,” “More Probability,” “Special Distributions,” “More Models,” and “Mathematical Statistics.” and makes extensive use of R.  Here is a favoring review the book received in [JASA][]. 328 pages. [Download link][Download link 1] (approx. 40 mbyte)
     *  [Street-Fighting Mathematics][] by Sanjoy Mahajan. [Download link][Download link 2]
     *  [Statistical Analysis with the General Linear Model][] by Miller and Haden. an introductory textbook describing statistical analysis with analysis of variance (ANOVA, including repeated-measures and mixed designs), simple and multiple regression, and analysis of covariance. 274 pages. [Download link][Download link 3] (p.s: this book makes no reference to R.  [see here for R tutorials and functions for performing repeated measures anova][])
     *  [Collaborative Statistics][] by Barbara Illowsky and Susan Dean.  This textbook is intended for introductory statistics courses.  627 pages.  R is not used in this book.  [Download link][Download link 4]
     *  Using R for Introductory Statistics by John Verzani Publisher: Chapman & Hall/CRC 2004 ISBN/ASIN: 1584884509 ISBN-13: 9781584884507 Number of pages: 114 Description: The author presents a self-contained treatment of statistical topics and the intricacies of the R software. The book treats exploratory data analysis with more attention than is typical, includes a chapter on simulation, and provides a unified approach to linear models. This text lays the foundation for further study and development in statistics using R. [Download link][Download link 5]
