Well that was the most compelling trailer I've ever experienced for a SQL reference book. Well done.


I bought and started reading the first few chapters. Great writing style and content as well. 10/10 would query again.


Turns out this little moon gets squeezed between Jupiter and Titan

Isn't it `Saturn and Titan` ?


Two questions.

1. Is the book worth it if you don't use PostgreSQL but Oracle?

2. What about his other books and videos if you are a CS Major but might still want to review the basics.


tl;dr a landing page for a book about learning to use postgresql with a framework of interpreting NASA data about Enceladus. The author munged some JPL data from Cassini that the user will load, query, and analyze. Digital only, available for 30$

I recognize the author, Rob Conery, from the 'This Developer's Life' podcast.
