Book description
Bill Karwin has helped thousands of people write better SQL and buildstronger relational databases. Now he's sharing his collection of antipatterns--the most common errors he's identified in those thousands of requests for help.
Most developers aren't SQL experts, and most of the SQL that gets used is inefficient, hard to maintain, and sometimes just plain wrong. This book shows you all the common mistakes, and then leads you through the best fixes. What's more, it shows you what's behind these fixes, so you'll learn a lot about relational databases along the way.
