rambling and disorganized - 2008-11-06
Reviewer Rating:
This book is a waste of money. Disorganized, rambles, presents examples without explaining them fully, repeats sections, hard to find what you are looking for since it is written in such a hodgepodge style, not good for either learning for the 1st time or as a reference.

Great book - 2008-08-29
Reviewer Rating:
I love the Dummies book. They make great reference material. They are a great resource for teaching. The SQL for dummies brought back everything that I learned about SQL when I was a computer programmer twenty years ago. My new career has required me to go back to relearning and making databases to keep track of massive quantities of information
