Hi Marco,
Depending on what you have to do, you may not need a GIS. R has now
many "GIS-like" features. I now use R for 98% of my work, and use GRASS
and QGIS mostly to process large datasets and as interactive
visualization tools. But all analyses and plotting (for publications or
reports) is done in R.
This is a good start:

Look the first section of the book, in particular.
Good luck!
Julian

Dear all,
I'm interested in the analysis of spatial data with R and I'm completely
new to the world of GIS. However, I would like to try to use R and GIS data
for analyzing archaeological data. On the web I found several links, and it
seems that a good combination could be the use of R with GRASS. However,
I'm a little bit confused due to the big amount of possible links, guides,
manuals. Do you have any suggestion (online material or books) for a not
experienced R user and completely ignorant in GIS?
Thanks for any feedback
marco
