Dedication
This book is dedicated to Joyce Carolyn Taylor, my partner in life.
Author’s Acknowledgments
First and foremost, I would like to acknowledge the help of Jim Melton, editor of the ISO/ANSI specifi cation for SQL. Without his untiring efforts, this book — and indeed SQL itself as an international standard — would be of much less value. I would also like to thank my project manager, Maureen Tullis, my development and copy editor Scott Tullis, and executive editor, Katie Mohr, for their key contributions to the production of this book. Thanks also to my agent, Carole McClendon of Waterside Productions, for her support of my career.
