2.0 out of 5 stars Good Reference, but..., March 10, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Data Management: Databases & Organizations (Paperback)
This book is full of SQL and database knowledge, but it simply has WAY too many irrelevent information. It tries to setup scenarios so you can apply the knowledge, but they are many pages long and one after another. I only bought this book because it was required for my database systems class, but I almost never use it. There is simply way better information free on the internet.
