Good examples and lively, clear prose

This book presents a nice systematic approach to jdbc. The first section develops a foundation in basic database topics. The next section develops jdbc as an implementation of these foundation themes. Finally the third section develops how jdbc can be implemented on the web.This is a coherent approach to the subject matter. To keep things interesting the early sections present full java rich applications that demo things. Hint: place all files for each chatper in separate folders, make a path to your java compiler, and then remove all opening "package" commands in each file. The dependencies of the source code are not clearly given. The best approach is to start with chapter 10 code.This book is essentially a solid and thorough tutorial in jdbc. It does not have an alphabetic list of all the commands of jdbc, but it really is an excellent tutorial.

You know some Java, No problem

The book takes you from the SQL basics, and explains it all, to the very advanced database and JDBC design and design patterns, very clear, very simple.You will not need any other book, after you finish reading the book, you will be ready for professional developing.

Good book

This is a really good book covering all aspects of SQL and JDBC. It starts with the very basic concepts of Databases and SQL and then covers JDBC in depth. There are few chapters in the end that cover Advanced JDBC and database concepts. Overall it covers topics for all readers, and a must read for the java database developer.
