Head First SQL 1st Edition (Paperback) Price: Rs.477

The book is Lynn Beighley’s fun guide to learning SQL.

Summary Of The Book

The book, Head First SQL: A Brain-Friendly Guide, is a one-of-its-kind guide to Structured Query Language (SQL), the leading programming language used in data management systems. It covers a wide range of issues on the subject, including Data and Tables, The SELECT Statement, Smart Table Design, ALTER, Advanced SELECT, Multi-table Database Design, Joins and Multi-table Operations, Subqueries, and Security.

The book is quite unconventional in its format and presentation. Information is presented in a magazine style, and with an informal tone. Short memorable subtitles are given to each section to immediately convey the meaning of the topic. It also uses illustrations, drawings, and other imagery from popular culture to keep the interest of the reader alive. Even the font style used in the book doesn’t come from a family of formal fonts.

This approach is used based on numerous psychological studies that confirm higher affinity of human brains to images as opposed to large amounts of text. The book adequately covers all issues relevant to SQL, only in an easy-to-read, easy-to-learn manner.
