Hi folks, Please suggest a good book for beginner in Quantitative Methods/Techniques. Adding to this, a good book for beginners in R programming language, used in Quantitative Methods. And I've a few questions about this:

? Should I have to learn the other subjects like Probability, Statics, etc. before learning Quantitative Methods

? Is there any relation between Quantitative Methods & Data Mining
