Data modeling has little to nothing to do with SQL. What are you trying to accomplish? Designing relational data models?<p>I suggest Introduction to Database Systems and Database in Depth, both by Chris Date.

SQL Antipatterns is a good one for general design decisions. Use the Index, Luke is a good one for understanding indexes.
