PHPClasses.org has a new book review posted today covering the Packt book Mastering phpMyAdmin for Effective MySQL Management.
"Mastering phpMyAdmin" is the first book totally dedicated to phpMyAdmin. The book was written by Marc Delisle, one of the co-developers who resumed phpMyAdmin development when the original author, Tobias Ratschiller, became too busy with other projects and could no longer dedicate time to phpMyAdmin.
The book itself covers practically every aspect of the use of phpMyAdmin in 18 chapters. Due to the great length of the list of features covered in the book it is not viable to detail them in this review.
However, as a sort of overview it can be said that the book covers from the most simple features to the most complex in the end of the book like creating bookmarks for frequently used database queries, generating documentation about the structure of a database, transformations of the column data according to assigned MIME data types and MySQL server administration.
It seems that this review looks favorably on the book, but also does note that since it's an overview, there's not that much depth into one particular subject.
