The book I've been using is 'MySQL, The definitive guide to using, programming, and administering MySQL 4.1 and 5.0' ISBN 0-672-32673-6 (there may be a more recent version). Well written, with a general introduction to SQL and (from my POV) very good sections on writing MySQL with C and PHP -- TTFN.
