Synopsis :

SQL has become the standard language for accessing information in relational databases. It is becoming increasingly important as a means of enabling personal computer users to use data stored on mainframes and workstations through client/server networks. This book guides readers step-by-step through the basic vocabulary and functions of the language and describes how to use it to develop applications. It covers the fundamentals of database design, security and data integrity. This updated second edition also includes two chapters specifically on implementing SQL in the workplace. These chapters contain explicit solutions, ready-to-use code and general strategies for common business database challenges.

Quatrième de couverture:

The Practical SQL Handbook is the best-selling guide to learning SQL, the standard language for accessing information in relational databases. This book not only teaches SQL as it has been established by ANSI standards committees but also as the language is used to solve real business problems.

You'll learn step-by-step the basic vocabulary and functions of the language and the processes and issues involved in developing robust applications. This book provides a thorough grounding in the basics of database design, security, and integrity. You will learn SQL pragmatically, by creating a sample database and then working through dozens of examples with it.

Fully updated to cover the ANSI SQL '92 standard, the third edition of The Practical SQL Handbook includes a cookbook of specific solutions, ready-to-use code, and general strategies for common business database challenges.
