I was just asked today, by a vice president in the company I'm working with, to train one of his staff to become a database programmer and administrator. I have taught software engineering using UML, and programming in Java and C++. I have not taught database programming and administration, although I have done some of each for some of my own applications. My Question? Can the folk in this group help me develop a reading list and a list of competencies for this fellow to master? While I can easily develop a list of books dealing with databases in general and SQL in particular, it is not so easy to separate the wheat from the chaff, and I do not want to waste a pile of money on evaluating the range of books that are available. I'd therefore like accounts of books to avoid, and why, as well as books that are essential in any respectable collection, and why. I'm interested both in text books, with exercises, and reference books (both theoretical and practical). Thanks Ted
