After some guy on a Web site recommended this book, I went and bought it. Frankly, I'm disappointed. Were there pages missing or did old Mike forget about SQL Agent? With SQL Server 2000 on the street, much of what you see here is old hat. Current books cover SQL 2000. This one doesn't. For a guy that apparently spends more time on the newsgroups than he does actually using the product, the self-important style is inappropriate. Go and earn your stripes, Mike.

THIS IS THE BOOK if you have any previous SQL experience ( i.e. if you worked with MySQL or PostgreSQL ) and want to get SQL Server 2000 skills. Organization of this book is straightforward and very logical. Explanations are great and this book has even exercises at the end of each chapter! ( With answers at the back ). I am more than satisfied with this book.

I needed to come up to speed quickly on SQL. This book served as an excellent learning tool, then later as an excellent reference. I found the explainations and examples very clear and concise. The organization of the book was clear and allowed me to focus on the areas of SQL I needed to know most. Don't let the thickness of the book scare you, you can easily pick and choose your chapters and it reads quickly.I tried another SQL book prior to reading this one, and found it complex and confusing.
