High Performance MySQL Third Edition pre-order available
You can pre-order the new edition of High Performance MySQL now on Amazon or via O’Reilly’s website.
Eric Bergen called the second edition “the best MySQL book on the planet“. What will the third edition be called? The best in the solar system? This reminds me of a joke, supposed to be a true story: three pizza restaurants next to each other had signs saying “best pizza in town,” “best pizza in the world,” and “best pizza on this block.”
Congratulations! Can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Baron,
Is there going to be a kindle edition at release? Afraid I have gotten lazy and don’t like to carry dead trees around :)
Looking forward to it.

Dunno about Kindle – it’s out of my hands :) I think O’Reilly does Kindle versions, though.

Great news!
Will it also be available through Safari Books Online? That way I can easily share it (or advocate it) with my colleagues.
BTW: Even though the supply of the third edition should be big enough to supply the whole I community I simply had pre-order to get my hands on it before them! ;)

Those pizza restaurants share the same kitchen, like your book.
