Customer Rating: 
Summary: Very helpful book
Comment: Once I got past Chapters 1 and 2, and Appendexes 1 and 2 and figured out how to get started, the book then became meaningful and understandable and I was actually excited after I did my first SQL.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Book for Absolute Beginner; Great Reference for Users
Comment: I owe so much to this book. Coming from a static HTML and art background, I was completely in the dark about SQL. The book is so perfectly understandable that it served to be the best segue into the world of data handling. The book has also proved to be an invaluable reference as it covers a huge amount of higher level SQL statements, functionality and procedure. Add to cart now! :o)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good and short
Comment: A very good and short introduction to SQL.
It can be used as a tutorial and a reference.
P.S. The name of the book is somewhat deceptive - it means "10 Minutes for a chapter", not for the whole book as a reader may think.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Better than a community college class
Comment: In this little book are short to-the-point lessons on SQL which are fine tuned to the particular SQL program that you are using, eg. MySQL. The book references a website from the author which gives example data and includes errata for the very few typos that made it through the editorial process. I purchased this book when I was taking a class in SQL, and the text book was really poor. This little book taught me everything I needed and more. It is not advanced. It is for newbies, and it clear and well written. Everything is turnkey. When it says type this...type it and it works. This is perhaps the best purchase, that I have made all year.
