I rarely read programming books, and even more infrequently have anything nice to say about them. But I found this book to be a great list of recipes, suggestions, and insider's tips for writing good SQL (Standard Query Language -- the language you use to talk to relational databases).
Paul Dubois is a notable expert in the field anyway. If I recall correctly, he's the documentation lead for the MySQL project. Thus, he's certainly well qualified to write something like this.

This is a good reference book containing pre-canned routines for accessing and manipulating a MySQL database. It is a good starting point for making routines to generate reports or validate data.

A little bland... ba-dump-bump-bing. It had some interesting ideas for monitoring server status programatically, views for summary tables, and gathering stats/logs with triggers. When I do more of those things in detail, I may glance at certain parts again. Available online at Safari Books. [Skimmed w/some reading]
How to do anything with SQL. Recipes for almost any kind of MySQL data manipulation. This book is a nearly complete education for a career as Database developer (but not complete for DBAs)
Unlike all 900+ page computer program manuals, this is one that I have actually read from cover to cover.

Ha ha, just kidding. But seriously, I am reading this, slowly, for cause, which is the only reason why anyone would...
Update: It did the trick. Quick access to many little tricks that would have taken too much time to think up myself. Sweet. Recommended!
