Sams Teach Yourself has some of the best books on programming & technology. Their book SQL in 10 Minutes is currently in its 4th edition with almost 300 pages.

The title is an obvious misnomer because you will not truly learn SQL in just 10 minutes. But it’s not a disingenuous title either because the lessons really can help you learn fast. The author Ben Forta has over 20+ years experience working in IT and currently works with Adobe as a tech evangelist.

Ben’s writing style is clear, easy to follow, and works well for beginners. He covers all the most common SQL statements along with “tech lingo” that you’ll need to know. The book is a decent size but not too thick or intimidating for a beginner.

You can have absolutely zero knowledge of SQL or databases and still learn from this book. The writing style is made for beginners and by the end you’ll feel a lot more confident working with SQL in any context.
