I want learn permutation test and resampleing, etc. There are a few references listed below. I'm wondering what is the best book on this topic. Can somebody give me some advice. Thank you! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resampling_%28statistics%29#Permutation_test

[R] reference on permutation test
It's always worthwhile to look at the articles by Pitman (and maybe the textbook by Fisher, if you have access to it); Welch is a nice paper, too, but might be pretty technical to "learn" about the area. I don't know any of the textbooks except Edgington (which is in its 4th edition now with co-author P Onghena), a book I can wholeheartedly recommend. The authors explain the basic concepts in a way that should even be accessible to non-statisticians, I believe. They also cover a lot of special cases, and give exhaustive theoretical background for those interested (you can easily skip these parts if you are not). It goes along with a CD with some programs to run these test, though I did not use it so far -- you can do it yourself in R, of course :-) I am not sure whether they cover any other resampling methods at all, but if so, only very briefly, so you'd need another reference for that. Efron & Tibshirani is a classical, while I heard some people recommending Davison & Hinkley -- I didn't find the time yet to look more closely into the latter.
