This is a good book, maybe as a reference. The first 3 or 4 chapters are vital reading. A bit dry though, who only works on a database without any other software? This isn't 1980.
None the less, if you're learning PHP, Rails or what have you, this needs to be on your bookshelf.
It does answer some questions about MySQL that never get answered elsewhere.
