Learning SQL

I just finished the book (main chapters as well as appendices) and generally found it to be a solid introduction to SQL. As someone who had used SQL in an ad-hoc and tangential manner in the past, it was good to see a more formal treatment and learn some things that I had never encountered before (and wouldn't have thought of on my own).

If you want a book that is aimed at beginners, I would recommend this. I gave it three stars because there are some text errors, that could leave some users discouraged.

I am happy with the book. Unfortunately I need to learn a different type of sql language so it wasn't exactly what I needed.
