Book is somewhat scattered in thought. Good content though, and I suspect a second edition will clear up a lot.

The 'PHP an dMySQL' book by Sams is scattered too. But it came with an outstanding PDF formatted manual that has saved my A**.

Amazing that out of two books, I'm having to resort to a PDF.

If someone could of just tutorialed getting the basics down for Windows users.

The link proved to be outdated and no sample database could be found.

This is a serious flaw, as the beginner has no visual reference point.

This book doesn't even begin to cover video game programming in mySQL, not even the basics. In fact, it doesn't cover video game programming at all. The section on compiling for DOS must have been lost on the way to the printing press... While the plot had substance to it, the ending was predictable and unoriginal...
