Seems that the author really knows the subject. The book contains lots of examples and can be used as a reference to implementing a bi-temporal database.

Not sure if I wanna recommend this, since it's not an easy read and I somehow think that there might be better books out there about temporal databases. Definitely not a useless book, though.

This book very nice explains the issue of dealing with time in relational databases. It goes in to detail explaining the basics of date and time (duration, period, interval, instance, etc.) and how it can be stored.

The book was written in 1998, so some of the SQL in it is no longer valid. But I'd still recommend it for a junior developer to read it.
