ABOUT THE BOOK
Learn how to use and design databases, make them hum, sing, and dance, and
understand what makes them tick. A database is like an appliance that users need to
understand and use as experts but they do not need to understand how to build the
appliance. This book provides a comprehensive coverage of database principles and
practice. The author teaches databases without burdening the reader with theorems
and internal algorithms and methods used to implement database systems. The
Oracle database system is used for the examples.
