Database books currently tend to fall into two categories: highly
theoretical and detailed textbooks and manuals which teach how to use
the software but not the underlying theory. Neither type of book
explains why the reader would want to do many of the things they
describe. Marklyn and Whitehorn cover essential relational database
theory and explain how to build databases securely – without bogging
them down into too much detail and endless formulae. They start by
explaining interface components and letting you build working databases.
Along the way the authors guide you through potential disasters and
provide the techniques to avoid them. Inside Relational Databases is
aimed at equipping students with the necessary skills to build practical
databases in the ‘real world’ as well as ensuring that they have a
sufficient theoretical grounding in the subject.
