Any way to select without causing locking in MySQL?

Found an article titled “MYSQL WITH NOLOCK”

in MS SQL Server you would do the following:

SELECT * FROM TABLE_NAME WITH (nolock)

and the MYSQL equivalent is

SET SESSION TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED ;
SELECT * FROM TABLE_NAME ;
SET SESSION TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL REPEATABLE READ ;

EDIT

Michael Mior suggested the following (from the comments)

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED ;
SELECT * FROM TABLE_NAME ;
COMMIT ;
