If you want to get indepth information about ddl, you're better off with the SQL Sever Books Online. Since there are only 3 main DDL commands: CREATE, DROP, and ALTER, you don't need a book to master them. The online reference is your best shot for those three commands.
On the other hand, if you want a comprehensive book that establishes the building blocks and takes you up the ladder without confusing you, go for the MS Press SQL Sever 2000 Database Design and Implementation Self-Paced training kit. I think there's a second version in print, and it should be as good as the first, if not better.
