Reviews


One of the best SQL books out there!
This book packs a lot of information, from beginning to advanced topics. I learned a lot from this book esp. when I was pressed for time trying to fix things and do some scripts for the department I work for. I would definitely recommend this book to learn SQL scripting and other things related to database and table design.


Excellent learning aid for a SQL Server beginner
Great, convenient reference: I usually check it before turning to Google and MSDN, and so far have found it to be a sufficient, and far-easier-to-navigate, resource.

Excellent Practical Reference
Background: Professional developer with 20 years experience of application programming and embedded development who is recently learning SQL / SQL Server.

I was looking for a solution to a problem and found it in the online text included in this book. The solution saved me about 2 hours of research, so I went ahead and bought the book since it had already paid for itself.

It has since paid for itself many times over.

Great T-SQL Cookbook
This is a great book to keep at arms length. It has many great examples of the T-SQL commands and syntax. I use it most oftern when I find myself asking the question, "How do you use that command?". Subject matter is complete and includes the XML extensions to T-SQL.

Good reference but not enough detail to be truly comprehensive
I think this book is a good addition to your bookshelf but I was hoping for a little more. The price is right and the breadth of topic coverage is fine. I just want more "recipes"; that is more examples showcasing each topic with variations on how to use different commands and techniques in my SQL code plus best practices for developing a SQL Server databases across an enterprise software system.
