confused about normalisation

I'm new to databasing and I've just recently been getting my head around mySQL. After talking to some people about databasing, they all seem to mention normalisation. From what I have gathered it is essential to do this when designing any database for optimizational purposes. I have purchased a couple books on mySQL, neither of which describe normalisation at all. Is there anywhere I can go to find out more about this? Possibly any books that would help? Do I even need to know what normalisation is? Thanks. Received on Thu Jan 06 2000 - 00:00:00 CST
