Can anyone recommend a good book that would help me learn best practices for administrating a MySQL database that's large?

I'm looking for guidelines on when to use an index, how to optimize large queries etc. I've unfortunately always used the database as a programmer, and feel out of my depth administrating a DB that's quickly growing to thousands of records..

Suggestions appreciated.

Pete.
