Textbook on high-dimensional statistics I am a beginning PhD student in biostatistics and want to learn about high-dimensional statistics. I have looked into the books by Buehlmann/Geer, Wainwright, and Giraud, but they seem to be targeted at researchers: for example, the derivations are sometimes hard to follow and there is little help on practical issues. Do you have any recommendations? Preferably something with R code?

The book "Fundamentals of High-Dimensional Statistics" by Lederer should be what you want: it is very well written, explains all details, and contains R labs. The first chapters explain the main ideas in a very accessible way. The later chapters are about the mathematical foundations of the topic; they are a bit harder but still worth the read.
