Michael tells me that he’s too lazy to blog, but he’s pretty good at writing books! His latest book, The Definitive Guide to MySQL 5 is already available in English, German and French. It covers all the new features of MySQL 5.0 (and 4.1) in detail.
I haven’t got it in my hands yet, but I’ve seen the 2nd edition this book and it’s good stuff.
Michael’s own page for this book is at http://kofler.cc/mysql/mysqlbook.html
