RE: SQL book

I found both of Stephane's SQL books to be extremely informative and readable.  
Two descriptions that don't often apply to technical books at once.  On that 
note, anyone else excited for this to come out?

http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Oracle-SQL-Karen-Morton/dp/1430232285/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1291399391&sr=1-1

Hopefully it starts shipping soon.

I fully second that! If you wage a constant war on runaway SQL, this
is your foundational book.

I have a signed copy from the author (thanks Stephane!) and am
probably looking for an iPad version of it.
