Several years ago a challenge was given to technology instructor Rick A. Morelan. Take downsized workers with little or no experience with computers or technology and turn them into industry certified technology experts. The proven material from this venture is now available to you as the Joes 2 Pros series of books and videos. This new approach has vivid pictures on almost every page that shows what you should see on your computer screen as you work through the material, and downloadable content, home practice labs, software, and fun review games available from the joes2pros web site. Starting with the basic lesson: "What is a Database? " this book helps beginners get comfortable with the SQL language. From there, you will walk step-by-step through the basics. 'Beginning SQL Joes 2 Pros' is the second edition of the popular 'T-SQL Joes 2 Pros' with updated content and a lower price. The language examples in this book can be used with any standard SQL engine. Regardless of your skill level, you too can evolve from "Joe" to "Pro" by following the steps outlined in this book. Note: My publisher is not able to put a DVD in the back of the book but a DVD showing all topic and labs in 3 hours of full video can be bought on Amazon at this link http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-SQL-Joes-Pros-70-433/dp/B004GEB67C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1294633127&sr=8-2 or search for the Joes 2 Pros DVD kit.
