It would take the size of several books to systematically list everything in R so no book could contain that. If you read one page of the R reference manual per day and when you are finished with that then read the entire reference manual of one contributed package each week then you should be finished in under 25 years. Of course by that time there may be more packages than present so perhaps 100 years might do it.
