It is on database management, and is organized around a proposal for a foundation for data and database management systems (DBMSs). It can be seen as an abstract blueprint for the design of a DBMS and the language interface to such a DBMS. In particular, it serves as a basis for a model of type inheritance. The authors combine precision and thoroughness of exposition with the approachability that readers familiar with their previous publications will recognize and welcome. This book is essential reading for database students and professionals alike. 1543856 6 3 2006 Databases, Types and the Relational Model (3rd Edition) total:1|4:1| 1 4 2 0 0 0 false false Thu Nov 19 01:40:58 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 19 01:40:58 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jul 01 09:30:25 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 09:30:25 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1551482
