This book covers an amazing amount of ground in a short space (about 300 pages). For example, when they begin discussing data access, they take the time to explain some of the basics of good database design (such as applying normalization rules). They then show the creation of the database step-by-step with explanations.
This is the general approach--a little bit of theory followed by some hands on examples as they take you through the process of building a simple ecommerce site.

This book has too many errors. There is nothing more frustrating than to follow the steps outlined and find out it does not work because they did not Q&A the examples.
ie. They ask you to select a field from the table, but the field does not exist. The stored procedure does not include it.
You would have to know how to write SQL to correct this.
