2.0 out of 5 stars
confusing and contrived, August 31, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Modeling and Design for Today's Architectures (Artech House Computer Science Library) (Hardcover)
This is the worst DB design book that I've come across. The first few chapters is supposed to 'guide' you through the db design process, but the example is too lengthy and not to the point. The concepts that is to be explained is illustrated by contrived(using the author's own word) examples. Explanation is confusing. Luckily, I got this from a library and nothing to lose

Well-written, concise, easy-to-understand, April 20, 2003

I'm glad I took a chance on this book...it was well worth it! The author's clear, concise writing style is accessible to novices, yet provides a knowledgeable overview of data modeling. The book navigates you through the finer points of the process, deconstructing the design steps in easy-to-understand language. Highly recommended!

What I like about this book is that it is a great reference book for the architect/modeler. It is very concise and to the point. That is what makes it great.
