Rating:  At 900+ pages this book addresses a lot of common SQL tasks. And that's what a good cookbook should do. Not only does it present the SQL queries in the MySQL dialect, it also covers how to pump those queries through Pearl, Ruby, PHP, Python, and Java APIs. As an added bonus you can actually use this book to learn SQL. I thought the chapter on JOINS was especially well written.
