The book covers some theory when it's needed and comes with lots of practical examples, all using real world data sets to make them easier to understand and relate to. Using an ORM and how to best integrate “raw SQL” in your code is also discussed, and data modelling gets its own chapter too. I think you will like it! |

I've been working with both raw SQL and ORMs for a pretty long time. I'm definitely not at the DBA-tier and really complex queries scare the shit out of me but I haven't ever hit a complete roadblock when it came to modeling and querying data in a reasonably efficient way.
With that said, an ideal book for me would be one that just showed 100+ real world data modeling examples and how to query it in a bunch of real ways. Ideally an expert's thought process would be explained every step of the way. It'd happily pay $100+ for that just because I'm sure using it as a reference guide would save me enough hours in dev time to make it worth it.
