It depends on your starting point, of course. Whether you have a
background with other statistical packages and/or with programming
languages like C, etc.

Quite a few people have started from the intro manual that ships with R
(and its predecessor for S-PLUS). There are quite a few books out, see
for instance http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html (thanks for
reminding me that the info for my own book needs to be updated for the
2nd ed., by the way...), and freely available documents in
http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html.
