MySQL�??s popularity has brought a flood of questions about how to solve specific problems, and that�??s where this cookbook is essential. When you need quick solutions or techniques, this handy resource provides scores of short, focused pieces of code, hundreds of worked-out examples, and clear, concise explanations for programmers who don�??t have the time (or expertise) to solve MySQL problems from scratch.

Paul went on to write more than six books on MySQL, including the first edition of "MySQL Cookbook". He is also the author of "Using csh & tcsh" and "Software Portability with imake", both by O'Reilly.
