More About This Textbook

Overview

Each copy of this best-seller is now accompanied by a CD-ROM containing an electronic version of the book, allowing readers to highlight text, make margin notes and more. Fundamentals of Database Systems combines clear explanations of theory and design, broad coverage of models and real systems, and excellent examples with up-to-date introductions to modern database technologies. It focuses on the relational model and includes recent object-oriented developments such as SQL3 and ODMG. The authors provide coverage of the popular DBMS products, in particular the relational systems Oracle and Microsoft Access. They also address advanced modeling and system enhancements in the areas of active databases, temporal and spatial databases, and multimedia data models. The book also surveys the latest application areas of data warehousing, data mining, digital libraries, GIS, and genome databases. This book is appropriate for programmers looking for an introduction to database theory and application, or a reference to how popular real-world DBMSs address these concepts.

    Excellent Coverage BUT TOO WORDY

    Excellent text book. Builds the understanding from grounds up and gradually moves into detailed discussion. DO IT YOURSELF types should stay away from this book because this is a text book and they might be disappointed. Long and unstructured sentences full of bombastic words in most of the book will loose you!!!!; you know what I mean? Could have been written is much simpler english.
