Bagui,
Sikha
and Earp, Richard (2004) ** Learning
SQL: A Step-by-Step Guide Using Access.
Boston,
MA: Pearson Education. ISBN0321-11904-5.
[ At last! This is the first book we have seen that covers SQL from
the viewpoint of an Access user. Long overdue and a good, almost
indespensable title to have in your library. ]
Celko, Joe
(1995) Instant
SQL Programming.
Birmingham, UK: Wrox Press. ISBN 1-874416-50-8. [ An excellent
introductory book by an expert in the field.]
Forta, Ben
(2001) **SQL
in 10 Minutes.
Indianapolis, IN: SAMS. ISBN 0-672-32128-9. [
Compact and inexpensive little handbook but surprisingly good value
for money. I recommend it to my beginning SQL students.]

Gruber, Martin
(1990) *Understanding
SQL.
Alameda, CA: SYBEX. ISBN 0-89588-644-8. [ Good
beginner/intermediate level book, although a little older. Lots of
examples using subqueries. Unfortunately, out-of-print so
availability is limited.

Jan L. (1998) SQL

beginner/intermediate level. Does not go into advanced query design topics.]
