Overview
Sheds light on the ideas underlying relational database systems and the problems that confront database designers and researchers Provides an overview of database modeling with the Entity-Relationship (ER) model and the relational model (two different ways of structuring databases)
Addresses important extensions of the relational database model, including deductive, temporal, and object-oriented databases Reaches a wider audience than currently available books that either cover only the basics of the relational model or that cover models such as object-orientation but does not cover relational database theory
