SQL in 10 Minutes a Day, Sams Teach Yourself

Really good book for practicing your SQL skills. Most programming books give to much theory before introducing you to basic function. This cuts through the noise.

Worked with SQL years ago, but have gotten beyond rusty. Looking at possible job interview that requires some SQL, using this book along with the SQL Practice Problems book by Sylvia Vasilik.Both books would also be good for beginners. I pretty much taught myself SQL using the printed 2nd Edition of Teach Yourself SQL in 10 minutes and the internet. I bought the kindle versions of both books because its much easier to study and solve practice problems when you can have the book up on one screen and the interface to a RDBMS to work the problems on another.

Perfect for starting out when taking your first database courses in college.

Good book

Being a newbie to SQL, it is very informative and provides easy to understand language. I have not tried the chapter exercises yet however, I have been implementing the knowledge into my work queue with success.

This guide is very straight forward.I love that they give you access to a download that will completely instantiate your database.That was a huge timesaver and value added!!

I purchased this book as an additional resource for a masters level SQL class and as an ongoing resource for the future. I like that it starts with the basics and covers varying topics. There were a few things not covered, but they were more advanced topics, so worries. I really appreciate that the book covers SEVEN different Database Management Systems (DBMS)!!! I have finished my course and am still very glad I purchased this book.

Legitimate good stuff for people learning SQL. A good quick read to learn now and reference later. Everyone should be learning SQL going into the future and this book is very good for a first timer.

Paper books are much easier to use than electronic copies.With its beautiful and clear printing, I can learn SQL easily. OK, I just need SQL in Access.

Makes SQL easy and facilitates quite complicated programming. I recommend.

The internet has an ocean of free sql tutorials. I tried to start using them, for months, and I couldnt. This book helped me with the exact kind of start I wanted. Never been happier about purchasing a book.

All in all pretty good beginner’s book, love the way how the author illustrates the key concepts via simple examples and clear/concise writing style.Just unsure why the usage of CASE statements has not been included, this perhaps can be a area of improvement for future editions

The book was a Gift.According to the recipient, it's a good book.
