If you're interested in query tuning, you might want to hold off purchasing a little while. I should have my 2014 update of the query tuning book done within a couple of weeks. It's completely restructured so it should be more readable. Plus all new material on bad parameter sniffing, in-memory oltp, cardinality estimation and natively compiled procedures.

You're doing it wrong, you're supposed to let him buy the old one, then tell him how much better the new one is, and give him a discount. Or tell him support for the old version has been discontinued, and he must upgrade in order to receive his premium autographed copy.

or something like that.

Haha, I'd probably do it too! I will wait on the new one. I'll read the other two I got while waiting. Love my SQl books. So far one of my favorites is Itzik Ben-Gan's T-SQl Fundamentals though sometimes his writing can be hard to read. I have had many aha moments while drinking my coffee and turning the pages.

@Grant is it available for preorder or wish list?
