We used the 13th Edition in my graduate class, and this was hands down the best textbook we had used yet. Excellent organization, clean and clear graphics, very approachable content.
There is a lot of information to unpack in this textbook. It is a little difficult to tie together elements to a particular database system. For example, the author references differences between Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server, but the unique versions of each are not always clearly marked. Fortunately, I was reading this while taking an in-classroom course, so specifics were easier to gain from that instruction. For relational database theory, this was a good text.
I read this book because it is referred to in my "introduction to database" unit. I did not read the whole book but all recommended sections are really informative with clear and thorough explanations. Such a good book for beginners like me.
Really excellent book in describing the concepts and breaking complex theories into simpler terms. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone learning about database design and systems.
Not bad, not terribly good either, there's no way this is worth $100. Of course, the same could be said of most course texts I've had, but still--it's such a rich, rewarding field of study and despite nice and colorful graphics throughout, the text ignores too much of what is really interesting about databases.
Extraordinarily complete and accessible in its scope and approach, this is the ONE database book I keep coming back to for an on-the-job reference work. If you only have one database book, make it this one.
This is one of the best text book's I have ever dealt with. The information is clear and easy to follow. It was a great resource to use for a database design introductory class.
