Joe Celko is well-regarded and has several books aimed at programmers at different levels. Pick one that you feel might be at your level. If you're using Oracle, I'll highly recommend anything that you feel is applicable by Thomas Kyte. (Many of his books are intended for DBAs, you probably don't want those.) Speaking personally, I don't have a ton of book recommends because I did most of my learning about SQL from co-workers. I suspect that many Perl programmers who use databases are in the same boat, which may be why you have been getting so few responses to that request.
