Recommend a SQL book

I took an oracle class and there was a suggested book for SQL. I got the book but am not too happy with it as it was written in 1991 and seems a little outdated in parts. Its SQL Guide to Oracle By Rick Van Der Lans.
I was wondering if someone could recommend me a more recent book that would be good for a person in the beginning level of SQL programming. Thanks Received on Wed Aug 12 1998 - 15:50:27 CDT
