Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management, 5th Edition.(Book Review)

Peter Rob and Carlos Coronel

This fifth edition provides a solid and practical foundation for the design, implementation, and management of database systems that will be useful for teaching, self-learning, and reference. This edition has been updated to reflect the Internet's impact on database design and use, including the use of databases in electronic commerce and Web database development. The book also explores data warehousing and includes coverage on client/server and object-oriented database systems. It is complemented with exercises and problems at the end of each chapter to encourage hands-on learning and an extended case study that takes the reader through the implementation of an actual database to provide a context for learning marketable skills.
