An Excellent Value

The price I paid Amazon is a fourth of the list price. The book was listed as slightly damaged. But the damage is very minor - there is a wrinkle in the cover, and one page had a little section ripped off. I'll accept that level of damage any day.

I haven't spent as much time with it as I would like to, so my review is based on just a few uses. Molinaro starts off with very basic SQL. Then the examples get more interesting. What I like about the book is that it shows how to go from a verbal description of what information you want to the actual query that makes it happen.
