How do I use my join tables MySQL? -

the author has 2 columns
idauthor

book has 2 columns
idbook

author_has_book has 2 columns
foreign keys of author , book book_idbook
author_idauthor.

i have inserted author , book both tables , have entered keys join table.

now how use join table books author, or authors book? accomplished joins?

edit: suggested duplicate not same question.

it records

select author.* author author  inner join author_has_book authorhasbook     on author.idauthor = authorhasbook.author_idauthor inner join book book     on authorhasbook.book_idbook = book.idbook 

and if wish select specific author, need mention in clause, see example below:

select author.* author author  inner join author_has_book authorhasbook     on author.idauthor = authorhasbook.author_idauthor inner join book book     on authorhasbook.book_idbook = book.idbook author.idauthor = 'your author id'
