Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: SQL Clearly Explained (Paperback)
I am more of a user than an IT person, and I found this book very useful and easy to follow. The author has filled this book with examples of queries, and taken the time to discuss some of the more technical aspects of SQL such as data modification, database structure and indexes. So from basic data extraction tecnhiques to an overview of the inner-workings of SQL, this book is a success.
