And he has used his talent to craft an outstanding book for the SQL Server 2005 database programmer. I consider it a "must-have" resource and I also strongly recommend his T-SQL Querying book. I have been amazed at how much I learn each time I crack the cover and very much like how the author considers alternate programming options while reviewing execution plans of the various options. I also like how the book gives attention to all the major available SQL 2005 programming tools including a lengthy treatment of Service Broker.
