Yesterday I got the latest 3rd edition of the best MySQL book on the market, “MySQL” by Paul Dubois. This book is completely up to date with latest features added in versions 4.1 and 5.x.
Since I already own first edition of this book, first thing I noticed is, it is getting thicker on each new edition. This one has 1320 pages comparing to 756 pages in first edition. Obviously, no matter what MySQL haters said, MySQL is no longer RDBMS only for kids and small php sites.
