SQL: 1999 - Understanding Relational Language Components (Paperback, 2nd edition)

This book is the best way to make the leap from SQL-92 to SQL: 1999, but it is much more than just a simple bridge between the two. The latest from celebrated SQL experts Jim Melton and Alan Simon, "SQL: 1999" is a comprehensive, eminently practical account of SQL's latest incarnation and a potent distillation of the details required to put it to work. Written to accommodate both novice and experienced SQL users, "SQL: 1999" focuses on the language's capabilities, from the basic to the advanced, and the way that real applications take advantage of them. Throughout, the authors illustrate features and techniques with clear and often entertaining references to their own custom database, which can be downloaded from the companion Web site.
