DESCRIPTION:
For the current edition of this book, please seeMurach's SQL Server 2008 for Developers (ISBN 9781890774516). If you want to learn SQL, you've picked the right book. Then, it shows how to design and implement a database, how to use server-side features like views, stored procedures, cursors, and transactions, and how to use the CLR integration feature (new in SQL Server 2005) to create database objects in a .NET language like C# or Visual Basic. Unlike most SQL books, this one starts by showing you how to use SQL queries to extract and update the data in a database, because that's what every application developer needs to know first. With this breadth of material, this book works well for application developers and SQL programmers, but it's also a great first book for DBAs-in-training.

This makes it a fairly quick read. The other feature this book has which separates it from the pack, which I LOVE is Murach's standard layout pattern with explanation on the left page and code samples and figures on the right page. This is an extremely easy to use format for technical how-to manuals, because the code and the explanation are always toget. 005, that's obvious.

Just like the name states, this book is a great window into the world of SQL Server database programming (and even design and some administration) targeting developers.
