A Good Read, a Good Deed

Speaking of good books, Microsoft blogger Dan Jones last week passed on some info about a brand-new SQL Server book that benefits what looks like a worthy organization, www.WarChild.org, which is described as "a network of independent organisations, working across the world to help children affected by war."

The book, SQL Server MVP Deep Dives, was written by 53 SQL Server MVPs who volunteered their efforts and are donating all royalties to WarChild.org.
