The original edition was my first primer on relational databases. It was an excellent read.

Hi,

I'm relatively new to the database-scene. I've installed MySQL on Mac OSX 10.3, which was easy. I've installed Perl support for MySQL, which was suprisingly difficult. I've installed CocoaMySQL (http://cocoamysql.sourceforge.net/) to create, inspect and backup databases. And now I'm building my first database, and that is not as easy as I had hoped. I know that use of the 'JOIN' keyword can save me pages of Perl code, but how it works exactly is not yet clear to me.

Therefore I'm looking for a book, or maybe other documentation (on the web?), that can point me in the right direction. More specifically, I'm looking for a book that explains how to design and build databases, with examples of the queries in MySQL. Most books describe how you install MySQL, and list the SQL commands, but this information I already have. Can any of you suggest to me some helpful learning material?

Thanks,
