good book on sql server

Hope to be in the right newsgroup for this post. Can someone recommend a
good book on sql server programming (2000 and +)? I had a very bad
experience w/ one MS Press series book, so I would rather stay away from
them, but any suggestions are welcome. The ideal candidate would be
intermediate to advanced level, w/ many practical examples on T-SQL, DDL,
DML.
TIAAlto,
Question:
Which SQL Server book should I buy?
