best place/ book to learn sql .pl/sql database programming?

Question

I am not new to programming, but when it comes to databases, my concepts are messed up. I would like to know how to program in databases.. I am not sure which book to refer to ..and also I have to consolidate my concepts in databases. Any resource with good images, on joins, normalization would be of great help

Is there any resource/ book that I can refer to..so that I can be good in database programming.. I am inclined more towards java development using jdbc..any suggestions are highly appreciated thank you.

I'm not sure what you mean by "program in databases", but if you're looking for a simple introduction to SQL, I always point people to SQLZoo. It's an interactive learning experience via web browser, without having to install any software. Beyond that, it really comes down to which database you'll be using and your specific business requirement.
