The Language of SQL, Second Edition

Acknowledgments

A huge thanks goes out to all at Pearson who assisted with this book. I’d like to specifically thank Mark Taber, who was instrumental in bringing this book to Pearson from my previous publisher. I’d also like to thank project editor and copy editor Dan Foster, as well as Danielle Foster, who was responsible for the page layout. Siddhartha Singh did a superb job on the technical review. Chuti Prasertsith provided a wonderfully vibrant cover design. Finally, I must mention the generally thankless but essential tasks of the book’s indexer, Valerie Haynes Perry, and proofreader, Scout Festa.

As this is a second edition, I’d also like to thank all readers of the first edition, and especially those individuals who have contacted me ...
