I have just finished Sams' "Teach Yourself MySQL in 21 Day" 1st edition and
it was very helpful in teaching me about database and database design and
management for *nix as well as the dreaded win32, but it mainly assumed the
user was using Linux. However I noticed a few gramatical errors as well as
minor programming errors that I hope they will fix in the 2nd edition. I
would rate this book a B+ for beginners and a C+ for intermediate level of
knowledge, don't bother if you are an expert with MySQL.
