When I was just starting to consider my database-driven web site, I
checked mysql.com and found this:

http://www.mysql.com/portal/books/html/index.html

The best-rated book is the one I chose to get:

MySQL
by Paul DuBois
New Riders

I think it's awesome.

(Although neither it nor the web site documentation can help me with my
problem in shutting down the mysql daemon with mysqladmin......  !)

I originally had purchased

MySQL/PHP Database Applications  
by Jay Greenspan and Brad (forget last name)

And found its example code was ridden with typos and errors, to the
point that I was having a great deal of trouble following the text.  I
took it back to the store to get the DuBois book.
