My books and Chris Date's stuff deal with the "mindset problem" -- I
like my books better, but his "What, not How" is a good intro to
thinking in declarations rather then procedures. You can Google
ISO-11179 specs, but my SQL PROGRAMMING STYLE has some practical tips
on using the principles and is eaier to read than "Standard-speak".

And they are once again wrong. Standard SQL uses <search condition> in
the BNF; we were careful not to say <predicate> or <Boolean Expression>
because of the 3-valued logic and the lack of inference rules in SQL.
